[blueavlo]

too bad my clowns wont host it.

 

[Flighty]

What type of clowns? I bet they will come around.

 

[blueavlo]

they are occelaris tank bred.. which is probably the issue

 

[Flighty]

Be patient, they will be in it eventually unless that is an Atlantic carpet not a pacific. I'm in the camp that believes that tank breed or wild caught really doesn't effect their hosting preference and that has been backed up by my experiences with lots of clowns. Age and security are much bigger factors IMO. If they are comfortable and not scarred of anything in your tank they are less likely to jump right into an anemone.

blueavlo, get a mesh divider for the tank, one that wont affect flow, and confine the anemone and the clowns to about a 10-20 gallon area, clowns will be hosting soon.
