Whats the weirdest thing your clowns have hosted?

[PAXpress]

My clowns seem to host something different weekly.
Here is them hosting a mushroom.

And here is them hosting a brain coral (wellsophylia).

And here is my other clowns when they first started hosting my rose bubble tips anemones, which is less weird.


I'd be interested to see what your clowns have hosted?

I had a pair that hosted for years in a toadstool leather... no photos, sadly...

I'm a total nerd and cant resist taking a video when I see them hosting something different. I had them host a chalice before I moved it out of the tank because the chalice did not like it.

That was WAAAAAY before smartphones were a thing...

Now that I think about it, I probably have pictures from my old tanks on a memory card sitting in an old digital camera somewhere... Hadn't thought about that before... hmmm.

Mine are pretty normal unfortunately. They have 2 XL Rainbow BTA’s (6”+) right next to each other to make a nice carpet during the day all to themselves. Here is a just as the moonlights come on picture. Another 5 min and the anemone will have closed up enough to hide all 5.

Thats really something, I dont know much about those pink skunk clowns (if I'm right in what they are even!) you can have that many together with no problems?

Mine used to hang out in a rubble rock container full of baby jawbreakers.

Hair algae on the back of my tank.

 

[4FordFamily]

Frogspawn, torch, and even xenia once!

 

[Sea MunnKey]

Anemones, Duncans, Goniopora which one of the clownfish almost killed by excessive rubbing ... ;Shifty

My "remedy" ... place a fishnet (about 1 week) next to Goni and now the clownfish has decided to host the other second anemone ...

Yes you are right. They are naturally harem fish and do better in groups than pairs from my understanding. They are quite fun to watch.

Giant clam..?

Currently my clowns are hosting a magfloat. Sometimes they jus host the corner of the tank or a rock but this week it’s a magfloat. SMFH

It’s really strange when they actually take a BTA host. It’s way more likely that they host the corner of the tank or a power head.

We had a clown hosted by our large squamosa.

Mine do not reside in anything living per say, as they do an area of the tank. I've had them in 3 separate tanks, not including QT, and they claim the back left corner as theirs every time. I have them a BTA to live in, but its much to small to host them. They are friendly, now, and have never bitten me any more than a friendly nibble asking for food. When I first got them the female was crazy territorial.

My clown is hosting my maxima clam Will post pics or video later!

I’ve got a pair that is hosting my hammer coral. Hammer coral has never been happier with all the fish poop it eats.
