Cool video, thanks for sharing! Looks like a good size clown, if the nem was a bit smaller it might be hosting the fish for protection ;) Love the videos of clowns and their anemones.

Has anybody noticed the clown is sucking on the nems tentacles I've heard that is called true hosting!

My female false perc will nurse on my rbta from time to time. I thought it was strange...didn't realize this is normal behavior.

I've heard 2 reasons why they do it
1st true host they are cleaning the nem
2nd they are acclimating themselves to the nems sting.

First time I have ever heard that term. Besides, it doesn't make much sense -- the anemone does the hosting not the clowns. :)
