Scooter Goby or Firefish+ Anemone=???

[eliterecon14]

Would A scooter goby or firefish be safe with an anemone, not too sure about the scooter though. THNX

You probably mean scooter blenny
It depends on which kind of anemone. A popular anemone that likes to eat fish is the carpet anemone.
It also depends on if you're gonna feed the anemone regularly

Scooter dragonet was safe with condy anemone in my tank.

From what I've heard healthy fish usually know to stay out of the anemones. It's the sick ones that get caught thus creating the impression that the anemone likes to eat them.

healthy fish know anemones=death.

Well, that's good to know. I was a little worried myself, since we've got a condy and just recently started thinking about getting some fish for our 55. So well fed anenomes and healthy fish will generally coexist well then? Has anyone had any particular fish that are harder to keep with anenomes? Sorry to hijack your thread, lol.

hmmmm.. there are anenomes. that will eat fish more then others...
like carpets... and the other (damnit) condy.. i think

dont quote me,

but i think its really the health of the fish...

condy's are known to eat fish..

I purchased a little minimaxi carpet anemone and found my engineer goby being eaten by him. It was too late to rescue him. He was swimming/eating/looking fine the day before. I have three other gobies that hang out at the bottom of the tank and am hoping it was just a fluke. My aurora goby's hang out is less than an inch from the anemone. Wories me but what can I do?
