Morning everyone. Happy Father’s Day!

My Hippo Tang has gone rouge and taken a likening to eating my Zoanthids. Thought I would check here for anyone in the central Florida area that might want her. Since she is eating Zoanthids she would probably go after any softies, so a Fowler tank would be best for her. 6” long and very healthy. I originally got her from Dr Reef fully quarantined. Third picture she’s working on my Zoa’s

Or keep the fish and sacrifice those corals.

Mine ate branching hammers, so I removed them to QT for a month.

Then put them back and he’s not touched since.

Been 5 months, just stopped.

Where in fl?
There were two long colonies of Zoa’s and she ate all of them. Thought she only liked them and would stop, but now she going after my big colony of WWC AOI’s. That’s not allowed, so she finds a new home. Pretty sure they will recover once she is out of the tank. The entire bottom of the tank is Zoa’s, so be hard to remove them.

Yah, if it’s eat all, one at a time, needs another home.
I didn’t know they ate softies, if I knew, he would not have been added.

Mine tasted and maybe didn’t like so finished.
