Anemones Hosting Clowns Pics

[Doni]

Let's see your photos of anemones hosting clowns.
Tell us the type of anemone and clown.
Although there is no guarantee that a clown will take to an anemone, at least here you can see those that have matched up successfully!

Tank raised black & white clowns (one solid blk, the other has an orange beard) hosted by a haddoni anemone

Here is a few that I have handy -- will take more tonight after work.

Clarkis and BTA ( was taken after the lights were out and with a flash, whenever the BTA is in natural sunlight, or has a picture taken with a flash it comes out this color - picture was not altered at all )

Same pair with a RBTA ( sold the RBTA )

My PLTA and pink skunk pair.

Very old picture of my GSM pair and BTA ( sold both over a year ago )

I used to have a pair of orange skunk clowns (removed them when they began harrassing other fish in the reef).

One was an ORA bred orange skunk, the second was a wild caught orange skunk. They would hop from the RBTA to the haddoni. The male skunk preferred the RBTA while the larger female liked the haddoni anemone best.

Beautiful pics Toddrtrex!

 

[Toddrtrex]

Thanks, though I feel that yours are better.

Going to try to get a picture of the female clarki in my Haddoni tonight. Hopefully she will be in the blue one and not the yellowish/greenish/tanish one.

And would be nice if my false percs were in the GLTA by the time I get home, but I don't think that will happen -- but a man can dream.
(BTW -- I have 3 tanks, all clown pairs have their onw tank)
Here is a FTS of the clarki's tank.

I also used to have a pair of black saddleback clowns (Amphiprion polymnus) that were hosted by my blue haddoni.

 

[Toddrtrex]

Nice saddle backs, Doni, forgot about mine that I sold years ago.

And forgot about this guy.

GSM clowns hosted by a RBTA. These were by far the meanest clown fish I ever kept. Beautiful but so aggressive!

 

[Doni]

Nice Todd! I'm glad I am not the only one who has cycled through different types of clownfish It keeps the hobby interesting to me.

 

[Toddrtrex]

LOL Yea, I go through them faster than ex-wifes.

But lets see, I've currently have;
Pink Skunk pair
Clarkii pair
Flase pair.

Have had
Perc pair
GSM pair
Saddleback pair

Think I am remembering them all. The clarki pair I've had the longest, over 6 years now.

Oh and I had a Cin. clown meanest thing ever.

 

[Doni]

LOL!

The cinnamon clowns were meaner than your GSM?
Are your clarkiis nice?

 

[Toddrtrex]

I only had cinnamon clown -- but at least to me it was meaner, would draw blood everytime I had my had in the tank. And it would move my SPS frags around all the time. The GSM were in a 29 by themselves, so hard to tell how mean they were, but they never bit me.

The clarkiis can be nice. I used to have a 3 stripe damsel in their tank that they would never let out of the corner, but other than that they aren't too bad. My purple tang and them have an understanding. But, the purple tang likes to go near their egg nest and taunt them. Though over all they are pretty good, I've added new fish without them noticing.

Mine seem really laid back, I've moved the tank several times and it never interupted their spawning. Maybe it is because they sleep in seperate "beds" at night is the reason they are mellow.

 

[Doni]

Ouch!! I've never had a clown to draw blood; pick at me yes, but never THAT hard. Yikes~

Ive got a few. Two A. polymnus clowns with their S. haddoni.

Here are my orange skunks with some weird bubble tip. This is with the flash but I have one without.

 

[coker98]

Here is the weird BTA and the female orange skunk

Here is the male with his green BTA right next to the females.

Here are the occelaris with their haddoni.

 

[coker98]

Before I put the haddoni in the occelaris clowns hosted the GBTA down in the sump. It is great to have two different types of clowns in the tank.
