Abstract
We present evidence that FCC 046, a dE,N galaxy with an offset nucleus, suffered a counter-streaming instability. This instability may explain the presence of lopsided nuclei in other dE,Ns if these galaxies are weakly rotating. The counter-streaming needed for the instability may result from the destruction of box orbits during the assembly of the nucleus.
