-use this reaction might be caused by the stress from being away from their host anemone, the curlicue. Now I ask you, mainly people who have experience with them WITH their host anemone, are they really this aggressive and destructive? Do they have a high rate of killing inverts/fish, especially snails, and are they more aggressive than other pistols? Thank you for your time looking foward to your replies I want to enjoy this symbiotic relationship in my tank without jeopardizing the lives of other tank inhabitants.

Yes I mean the pistol shrimp Alpheus Armatus that hosts the curlique anemome I am not sure if they host Condies, I dont think so at least. From what i have seem species that will host codies are the Spotted amemome shrimp, Pedersons anemone shrimp, and arrow crabs.
