You never know, maybe. It might take one bite and say no more. Usually their instinct will point them to crabs, snails and SPS to wear down their teeth.

Blue throats are generally considered reef safe anyway.

My blue throat has been with my GBTA's and SPS for months with no issues.

Good to know. Anyone have any bad experience with nems?

RBTA's are pretty hardy as long as you have good water parameters.

I have 3 GBTA in a 180 gal with 3 puffers, (dog face, stars and stripe, spiny box) and 4 triggers (2 humus, 1 niger, 1 clown). I have never had a problem, but, i give all the credit to my pair of Maroons who make sure anyone who gets near, is scared away. Ill see if i can post a pic or two.

These are iphone pics, i don't have a filter to take some of that blue away, sorry for the quality.

I have RBTA with a Niger and Red Tail....no problems at all with the Nem.

So far so good it seems
