Clowns & Corals

[Ken_Allen]

Will a clown host a Blue Xenia or a Green Star Polyp even though they aren't anemones?

I just got some small frags of Blue Xenia and Green Stars so when they grow I'm hoping my clown will take one in.

No, but it is possible for a Xenia or a GSP to host a clown.

Pretty much anything to be used as a host for clowns, even a powerhead.

They may well but you'll have greater luck with euphyllia's such as Frogspwan, Torch etc, which look similar to nem's but are considered alot more hardy etc.

I got a few frags of these, so I'll have to get some frogspawn after. I was watching something on TV in HD today and I believe the clowns were in frogspawn. Frogspawn isn't an anemone though isn't it? Said there's only 10 species of anemones that host clowns.

Nope Frogspawn isnt an anemone...its an LPS coral....a Euphyllia to be precise

Clowns get creative, I had on host a hairy mushroom, my botther's is hosting a featherduster. It's odd the duster stays open and the clown cuddles in it.
