Personally, I think the "Nemo phenomena" has been a good thing overall. It's certainly raised the awareness of those that saw the movie about reefs- and it's helped Clownfish breeders all over the world. There will be a whole new generation of reefkeepers that care for their Clownfishes like never before. Fish overcollecting, anemone overcollecting and habitat destruction is a real problem- not Disney/Pixar studios.
We still need more pics for this thread. I'm gonna post one of my "oldie but goodie's". More to follow (by me) if you folks don't get posting your Clownfish pix!

No. Old pics. I'm going for a stroll down memory lane.
My new aquarium is set up perfectly for most any type of anemone and I keep wondering if I should get one.

I had a Clarkii Clown host in one of those anemones. They seem like a good host if the clown will accept it. They stay fairly small and don't tend to roam around the tank. Also, they seem to be common in their natural environment. They do have a very strong sting though, and mine permanently browned up after moving under MH's. If I ever raise clowns I'd like to keep a few of those in the grow out tank to encourage them to host in them.
