I was looking in at my tank last night and noticed my Bengaii cardinal kept hovering just over my LTA. Just as I commented to my wife he was pushing his luck he dipped down into the tentacles. Luckily for him I was able to reach in and push him free. He spent the rest of the evening on the other side of the tank moving a bit jerkily. This morning he seems ok though.
 
I'm now worried about if I get a green Mandarin Dragonet if I'm gonna have to keep an eye open at all times. The Bengaii got lucky, he used to hang out in that corner all the time before I got the LTA.
 
I would be up at nights to worry about that. I know the same thing can happen with my RBTA, but none of my fish go near it, not even my clownfish.
 
My Target Mandarin was eaten by one of my Maxi Mini's :( Personally any fish that perches I wouldn't add to a tank with any Anemones. JMO :)
 
I have a flame tail blenny who perches but he seems to stay away from the RBTA. I also have a pink stripe goby but he stays in the lower rocks or under them. He has never ventured to the top.
 
I did a bit of looking into it, and apparently in the wild the Bangaii cardinals are known for hiding in LTAs without getting hurt. Seems like there wasn't any problem at all XD
