Anemone ate juvenile tang

[jazmynethered]

So, I bought my JBJ 29 gal off craigslist a year and a half ago. It was completely established.

After a few months, I bought a juvenile tang (on the advice of an LFS and against my better judgement) and put it in the tank. Poor thing didn't last a week. The anemone had quite a tasty (and expensive) lunch.

Here is a pic of the remains the anemone spat out.

This happened about a year ago, but I was looking through pics and thought I'd share.

That is Insane! I've never seen something like that before.

That is crazy! What kind of anemone was it? I live in Oregon too.
