condy question

[kaineo]

i have a 40 gal oceanic w/ a 250w metal halide and i have started adding some corals. i have 2 galaxea, a torch coral, a flowerpot coral and about 40 mushrooms in my tank. the problem is i also have 2 condys in there too. will they harm or sting my corals????

Anemones are notorious about stinging other corals in the tank when they move around.

will they end up killing my corals. in my 29 gal i only have a 65w power compact. i'm afraid to move them in there because i have a parrot fish and i have heard that they feed on anemones. how would they do w/ 65w and the parrot fish.
:confused:

Im no expert on condi's but i can tell you that if you just keep an eye on them until they settle comfortably in a piece of live rock, they prolly wont move around and sting your other corals. I have 1 condi that got to the size of a small pumpkin. He started stinging my zoos so i moved the piece of live rock that he seemed to like. After that he got sucked up in one of my powerheads and i thought he would die for sure.....nope, i turned the PH off and let him pull himself out of it. That was a month ago and he is now as big as he was before and still has not moved from that piece of live/love rock lol. My galaxia stung more corals than the condi did. Wiped out half a colony of zoos overnight with those tentacles.....
