clown and anemone?

[tgriffin]

I know that this has been asked on here, but I figured it can't hurt to ask one more time.

So here goes....

I bought a green bubble tip anemone and percula clown last week. The guy at the LFS said that it was tank raised. I was told that a tank raised clown will not host with a anemone. Is this true???? If so, I guess I need to buy a wild caught clown. I think an anemone hosted with a clown looks great and am wanting to have that in my tank.

Thanks in advance

No it is not true, tank raised will reside in anemones just as readily as wild caught.

Not really, they do have the instinct in them but they are not sure exactly why they need it (this is a very unscientific way of saying it, but it is something like that).

They are less likely, but that does not mean 0% likely. I have two tank bred occelaris who are hosting my tank asexually bred RBTA.

Well, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will host up with my nem
