    Well it finally spit out the shredded goby and the cleaner crew went after it... I took the goby out and gave it the glorious last ride via the porcelain god. Man that means I have to go get another fish... What a shame...:wiseguy::wiseguy::wiseguy:

    I am kinda surprised to see that. You would think the fish would be smart enough to move if it starts to get eaten. Those corals are very slow moving and from what I know ( aint much ;)) they don't have powerful stingers like an anemone. (shrug)

    Sorry,

    Jim

    That's what I was thinking. Perhaps the goby was dead or dying before the brain ate it? I guess we'll never know :(

    I was thinking the same thing myself. But he was eating yesterday, and was moving sand around lastnight when I took the pic of my open brain... Like amcarrig said, we'll never know...
