    What do you guys advise?
    When the feeder tentacles come out during the day the clown will muzzle them and they usually retract. Scoly still feeds at night normally.

    I would say the scoly could be in trouble if the Clown gets aggressive in its rubbing.

    Ha! Thanks happy, but a BTA in a sps reef that houses high end acros is a bad idea...
