Finally the anemone is hosting the clown fish. Took a long time. This happened after we added 6 new damsel fish to the tank to help raise phosphate. My tank is too clean. I gave up a long time ago and went to look at the tank and I was shocked at what I saw. Attached a video. I am so excited....

forgive my total lack of knowledge here - what kind of clowns do you have? they are so pretty and look so different from the usual kind! (I actually wasn't sure if the pics were of the aforementioned damsels at first since I know 0 fish by sight but it seems like those fish are shaped differently.) thanks for sharing either way and congrats on the hosting!!
 
The clown fish are skunk clown fish. There are 2 types of damsels. one is a Azure Damsel and the is a Blue damsel
 
awesome thank you!! i guessed the clowns were skunk from using a guide. really appreciate you clarifying so I can learn! they are gorgeous also
 
Sorry for the (probably dumb) question, but sort of nem is that? Doesn't look like a bubble tip (unless it's totally lost it's bubbles) or any others I know... anyways, happy the clowns have *finally* accepted their new home!

EDIT- dumb me, thought this was a new thread.
