clown hosted a GBTA but wont leave it


i have a baby maroon clown and he took host to my GBTA which im glad of....

my question is....once they host something do they ever leave it????

the only time mine ever leaves the GBTA is when im in the tank diggin around and he attacks me....

he has done dug out a hole under the rock where the nem is and just lays there when the nem isnt open.....

and he dont like ANYTHING to come near his home!!!! runs off crabs,other fish and even seen him chasing off a small sea serpent star......

are they always this aggressive when they host something?

the 2 false perc i had before the tank crash never hosted anything and had no issues with me diggin around in the tank....

This is all very normal behavior. Especially for a maroon.

you went from about the least aggressive to about the most aggressive of clowns. Just watch the nem mouth that he doesn't snuggle it to death.

Did I ever tell you about the time Brasky went hunting? Well anyway, Brasky decides he's gonna hunt down all four members of the Banana Splits. He stalks and kills every one of them with a machete. They all beg for their lives, except Fleagul.
