Dragonface pipefish

[hectorharvey]

Does anybody have a pipefish in a tank with hammer corals, duncans or zoanthids? I have read that a seahorse should not be combined with certain corals because they can sting the horse. A pipefish is in the same family. Are they smart enough to co-exist with these corals?

On an interesting side note, I saw my duncan and hammer coral consume a shrimp skeleton. The hammer just had an antenna hanging out. The duncan had it's mouth full with three long antenna hanging out. I'd hate to see half of a pipefish hanging out of one of those corals.

Yeah I wouldnt do it. They move a lot faster than seahorses, but they are not speedy.

no, don't do it...they will get stung or eaten and die.
