hawaiian sand anemone

[A_Z]

noticed these on PIA, wonder if they are suitable for a reef and would a clown fish host one?

 

[bradleym]

They appear to be Heteractis Malu. That is a host anemone and some clowns will be drawn to them.

The only clown anemone found anywhere in the Hawaiian Islands is H. malu (clowns themselves are NOT found in Hawaii). I've been to Hawaii about 10 times and have never seen a H. malu in the wild...

it will host the clarkii. pretty common in the trade in hawaii.
