I ended up getting a Condy from a friend. It’s been a couple days and has t moved luckily. But today one of my cardinal fish is hosting him. I find it fascinating as these fish don’t seem to have the same protective coating as a clown. It’s as if the anemone doesn’t sting them. Anyone else have had this happen?

The cardinal probably thinks the anemone is just a jiggly sea urchin :p

Technically, it would be the condy hosting the cardinal :p Never seen (or heard of) that before.
I humbly request a video!

I’ll try and grab one, he swims up to it and touches it’s tentacles and then backs up. He hovers most of the time. It’s pretty cool

Ah okay. When I hear "hosting" I think of the fish brushing itself with nem tentacles lol
So it kinda just hangs around the nem? Still pretty cool.
