O.briareus - Tank Mates attacked at become adult
I asked CaptFish for a list of the fish Leg's systematically killed or ate once she reached a point in maturity. I am hoping to start a thread for positive and fatal combinations but wanted to post this observation now because he documented the behavior change and results in a way we don't often get to observe (starting with a very young brieareus is extremely rare).

It all came down to size, as soon as she was big enough she would eat. Most of those fish were all very big except the flame hawk and chromis most of the fish were about 5" she didn't touch any of them until about 6 months. The only fish i saw show hostility towards her was the mated pair of clowns, everyone else ignored her right til she ate them.
