I didn't think it would ever happen. I've had the nem 5 months and the clowns about 10. I bought both as juveniles and they have paired up. The female is almost twice the size of the male, now. The male has yet to go in. The female had been hovering around the nem like something was driving her to it, but it seemed she was afraid to get to close. The male had chosen my torch coral as his host but when I got the nem I put the torch in another tank. I hope it dosn't take another 5 months for the male to go in.
