Anemone Substitute?

[carlos_fb]

I've been thinking about getting a BTA for my pair of Perculas but I'm so sure that would be a good idea since my tank is all sps.

I was wondering what kind of coral would be a good substitute for an anemone that my clowns would host and be happy with?

try frogspawn,torch coral or maybe hairy mushrooms.

I have a anemone, but I often see my tomato clowns in my hairy mushrooms and they also hang out by a pulsating xenia.

Frogspawn or hammer would be my choice.

My percs go going crazy over hosting their Leather coral & pulsing xienia;
They practically sleep in them. I also keep a BTA and it does fine with my sps.

my clowns love their frogspawn if you have room for one

I have an open brain, frogspawn & a hammer coral in my tank. But recently my tank bred Ocelaris seem to be trying to host in my candy cane coral. Thinking about putting in a hairy mushroom or toadstool to see if they might host there.

Crazy fish.....

I have a pair of ocelaris and they don't really host in anything i try. I have a bta, frogspawn, hairy shrooms, xenia and a toadstool. Every now and then they go in my frogspawn. I see them do that once a day. I just figure they'll eventually host in something, but none of the above are guarantees.
