Maroon clown + Sebae + reef?

[scubakid3]

The LFS has a REALLY nice maroon clown. Is this a naturally hosting species for a Sebae anemone? I also heard that they are aggressive. I already have a baby black occelaris in my 125 gallon reef along with other peaceful fish. Would this be a problem in my tank? Thanks.

Go into the Anemones & Clownfish Forum. One of the stickies is the "Clownfish and Anemones FAQ." Click on it. Scroll down to "The Anemone FAQ,' and select it. It will download to your computer and has a bunch of info.

The short answer is that the H. malu naturally hosts only the A. clarkii, according to that FAQ.

ETA, maroon clowns are known to be quite aggressive. I don't know about your other fish, but I think (emphasis on think) you would have problems between it and your occelaris.

Cool thanks. It is actually a crispa. I'll try to get a picture up later.

I have 3 maroons in a 225 with 5 percs and 4 occilaris and have no issues with any of them actually my 3 maroons all share the same anemone so every fish has its only personality
Good luck
