Default My Clown ate my Anubia bloom....Y?

Walked into the room and saw one of my clowns being frantically chased by
the other... back and forth, but one had a white shell in it's mouth, I
presumed a snail... until I saw that my Anubias, Nana and Barteri that

were
blooming at the same time, wonder why, had been devoured by my tenacious
clowns...

Why do they eat them, or do they? They aren't hungry.... bored?

Why do Anubias bloom at the same time??? or do they???

just passing some time in contemplation....

btw, still not lost one oto... wonder why??



Since your two types of Anubias are in the same Genus (and may even be the
same plant), their growth requirements are usually similar. If the
conditions are right, then it would be expected that these two (similar)
plants would flower at the same time.
The blooms could just be a new taste sensation for the fish.
Sounds like a good batch of oto's in a proper and healthy aquarium.
