Clown hosted anemone FINALLY!!!

[Flow863]

My clown has finally hosted the anemone
My clowns would always dig a hole in the front corner of the tank when the lights went off at night
So i decided to place the anemone in that corner and wala....It hosted it
Will they continue to host even when the lights are on?

Maybe they are still hosting the hole lol. But from my experience once they host the anemone they will barely ever leave it.

Congrats! Isn't it cool to watch?

 

[Flow863]

It is very cool
Cnt belive how excited it got me when i seen it
Lol

Can someone clarify what hosting an anenome means?

 

[Flreefer]

The anemone is actually the host. You know, when you have a Party at your house, your the host. Same with the Nem, he's hosting the clown. You always here " the clowns hosting", but it's actually the other way around.

You were pretty lucky because it does not happen alot of times. Congrats on it happening. Nice looking clown BTW

Maybe move the anemone away from the glass now? If the clown is going to live there he looks a little squished...lol Just a suggestion...

 

[Flow863]

Lol
He does look squshed in the pic but he really isnt
He is like 2 inches from the front glass
I may move him though
i had him towards the tip of my tank before this

If the anemone is happy, and the clown is happy, why mess with success? If the anemone wants to move, it will! LOL

 

[Flow863]

Your right
I just turned the rock so the anemone wont be eating dirt
Lol
My clown loves it
My other clown looks left out though
My 3 striped clown is hogging up the anemone

Does your anemone appear stressed after the hosting?

 

[Flow863]

No not at all
It looks fine
