Hi all, Just looking for a bit of info. My condalyctus anenome is now hosting my 2 clownfish. I was told this is rather rare as they are tank bred clowns. The female is lying in the centre of the anemone most of the time. Is this normal? Is seems well but rather strange. Any advice...

About 2 months ago, I added a Green bubble tipped anemone(5-6")the aquarium and ensured that he acclimated and was in good shape. I added a maroon clown (about 2 1/2" long), He the anemone hosted him about 3-4 days later and they became best of buds. The issue is, he goes crazy with his...

I have a percula clown fish and I have had it about 3 weeks now. About 5 days ago I came home and the clown fish was in my sebae anemone. It seemed as if the fish was going to host the anemone. When I woke up the next day the clown wasn't on the anemone and hasn't gone back to its since. Is...

ok, so my dumb clownfish started to host my duncans, but i don't think he realizes that they are way too small for him so he is really awkward around them and its really funny to watch. Ill try and post a video a little later, cant get it to work right now

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/03/01/clownfish-sea-anemone-wiggle-dance_n_2789711.html Good read about their relationship. Might also clear up the very common misconception that the fish is the host.

Is it possible the a tank bred clown would host a Hammer Coral? I have to clowns and just recently they have started swimming down in my hammer coral that's about 5" in diameter.

About 3 weeks ago I bought a hammer coral. It has been acting normal(opening during the day with sweeper tentacles and closing at night). About 1 week ago I added a pair of clownfish that seem to host to it immediately. Over the past week the hammer coral has not been opening much. I thought the...

So I just bought a LTA yesterday and put it in my tank. Its about 10" across and really pretty, light orange with green colored highlights in actinics. After I put it in I noticed that he came with an anemone crab. Cute lil booger and a nice hitchhiker. So this was my plan after talking to...

I purchased an anemone today and was told that it will host my two Austrailian Clowns and I was trying to do some research on what it is, and now I am not quite sure that it is all that safe for my clowns. I have some pictures posted and would love some help! Thanks!

Hi, I bought 2 clownfish and a torch coral today, they are now the first things in the tank and I was wondering how long it would take for the clownfish to host the coral, Thanks.
