    Hi, new to salt water tanks and have been trying to get my clownfish to host my new bubble tip anemone for a few weeks now. Today I went down at night and saw him doing this (video attached).

    How can I get clowns to host anemone?

    I have a bonded pair of snowflake clowns that are hosting the empty bottom corner of my tank, when I have a fat, fluffy BTA for them to enjoy. I have tried catching the fish and putting them directly onto the nem as well as herding them toward it, but they swim away without a moment's...

    Tomato clownfish hosting in two different anemone?

    I thought it was interesting to see after putting some btas in my tank that my tomato clownfish is being hosted not only by the condy it’s seemingly forced into the arrangement but also the bta that’s near by as well, does anyone else’s clownfish go to multiple anemone? My other two cinnamon...

    Happy Clown and Purple LTA

    I’m super happy my new True Perc took to his new Nem after only a few hours. After two fails, this nem also seems happy and doing well. Thawing a chunk of silverside enriched with Selcon and Vita-chem for the Nem’s first meal.

    Question about BTA and new hosting clowns

    Forced Clownfish Anemone Symbiosis

    Hi! Does anyone know a way to get their clownfish to host an anemone. I’ve had a green bubble tip anemone for about a month now and my two clownfish don’t even get close to it and always stay in the back of the tank. I’ve tried reorganizing my live rock and adding a new fish to make the...

    Clown selection

    I've got a 90long tank going. The idea is for it to end up being a "community" reef, peaceful for the most part is the hope. We want a pair of clowns... (I know;Facepalm) a. ocellaris seems to be the best bet. I really like the look and idea of symbiosis but I am torn on the idea of a nem...
