Yea gotta watch them. From what I've read, some bta can handle and respond well to an aggressive clown. My first bta obviously couldn't bounce back. This one so far is liking it. My female is not very gentle. She like dives into it and wiggles rapidly. Fun to watch but man it worries me

IME once the nems accepted the clown they can handle the rough stuff, assuming it's healthy of course. And it looks like your nems accepted the clown from that pic

I think you're right. The other nem was already hurting and with the female trying to let itself be hosted it stressed it to death. This nem is obviously not on the downhill slide. Have you tried playing a video for the clown or taped a pic to the tank?

No, I've always been of the mind set that clowns are just gonna do what they want, and the clowns always agree :p

Well the nem was IMO a perfect spot lol. Dead center and plenty of room for everything else. Not it has moved up the rock work and I'm trying to scramble. Not a bad spot though just not as sweet as the other

It is nice to see I'm not the only one finding the exact same use out of extra mag floats. I have two of those going in the tank right now.
