I don't believe condys host clownfish
No they definitely do not lol. I knew that going into it, but my hope is not completely lost. They were in it at LFS but they said that was most likely stress related and none of my fish are stressed so that behavior won’t repeat. One day when I stumble upon a nice BTA I will grab it up. LFS was selling their quarter size BTA for $250 and I was like uhh no? Clowns would just stress it out and kill it at that size
Where as it's not as common for clowns to host/be hosted by Condy's, it's not unheard of. It's more up to the fish. My little clown will bounce from the LTA to the Condy and then the BTA and back. But the big one will only go between the LTA and the BTA.

But then again, maybe I just have weird fish like this Chromis that enjoys the Condy too.

I have a Domino Damsel and I was wondering if it will host an anemone. I was thinking Bubble Tip my LFS has some nice ones. I would (as soon as my tank is matured) like to have an anemone if my damsel will host it. Also any tips on anemone care are greatly appreciated! Thanks!

There's no guarantee any fish can be hosted by a nem, clowns included. Took mine over 2 years.
