Anenomes in tanks without sponges over the powerhead intakes...
Just a matter of time. Sorry for your loss.

yeah, thats the hard part of keeping anemones with powerheads. you have to take precautions to prevent stuff like this.
thats too bad. anemones are one of the coolest inverts out there.

Clowns don't host Condys in nature. There is no guarantee that they will host anything...clowns will be clowns. You could try women's hose on the "intake" part.

It can possibly eat other fish as well. They are extremely hard to keep as well.
My clowns are nice, but they are the only two top swimmers I have in my tank. The other is a shrimp goby.
