Surrogate clownfish host! pic included

[Sand Reef]

It looks like my clownfish have taken to the button polyps. Last night I found both sleeping within them. This morning the male was playing with them.

Cool! Do the polyps seem bothered?

[Doug1]

or are they just waking up?

[Sand Reef]

They dont seem bothered by them, but sometimes they curl just the outer edge up a little. The picture was taken before the lights came on, I opened the window to let some light in, so they were still closed up.

Cool Sand Reef! It is fun watching them wallow in their host..it's definitely appealing and easy to see why the image has drawn so many people to SW.

My maroon clown has taken up with Trachyphyllia again. It's comical as she is so large and the Trach is rather small. Looks like someone trying to get into jeans that are a little too snug, lol. The Occelaris in my little tank has taken up with the fuzzy shrooms again, he's having a blast! I've even seen him sucking on the tips as clowns will do with anemones.
