Clown hosting a frog spawn

[Vegasgungirl]

How on earth do I stop her? Sigh.

I don't want my frog spawn to die. It won't even open much now cause the clown won't leave it alone.

 

[Vegasgungirl]

This is when it opened before. It's bigger now but the clown won't stay away so it can't open.

Set in an anemone or two to give it more housing options.

I put a condi in already hoping the tentacles would attract the clown. No such luck. I'm not a fan of anemones so one is enough. I've never been stung and hope to keep it that way.

Clowns don't normally host condy's, usually bubble tips and carpets. Sorry. Good luck!

 

[Nu-Nu the eel]

Do nems even sting people??? Lol mine doesnt and i have touched it numerous times..

 

[bettaowner]

Only certain anemones are deadly. Some anemones don't have strong enough nemocyts to harm humans.

I have a pair of clowns that have been hosting my frogspawn for about 9 months. The frogspawn is doing great and has since grown 4 new heads. I say let em host!

I have handled carpet, sebae and bubble tip and have never been stung.

I bought a hammer coral with the hope that I can get a clown to host it. I am letting the coral grow before I get my clown so it won't bother it much. That is how i hope it will work anyway, knowing my luck the clown will host a power head. Will the coral be ok if it is big enough?

Do your clowns ever try to feed the frogspawn? I've seen them feed anemones so I'm a little curious.

Keep in mind that some clowns can be rougher on their coral host than others. I do agree with you. If the frogspawn isn't showing any signs of damage it's not going to be an issue. If it's retracting from its skeleton then he has a problem. Either way, I'd get rid of the condy.

I can't say that I've really noticed, I'll have to keep an eye on it.
