Naked hosting my hammer

Sorry for the bad pic, but I'm just excited about this. I've only caught him doing it with the lights off.

That's really cute. My clown's host is the corner of the tank. Does it appear to have any adverse effect on the Hammer Coral?

He's loving that hammer . Do you have any anemones in your tank?

 

[dirt1008]

No the hammer hasn't showed any signs of abuse yet, but it's only been a few days. As far as anemones, no, I gave up on that idea a long time ago.

Hammer has about tripled in size and my clown still loves it

Cute! My clowns use a rock full of star polyps as their host.

Just added a LTA to my tank and the clowns just stick to the corner. Dont seem to be interested in the anemone at all, and they never go by my hammer either

Clownfish will pick whatever appeals to them as their host (the anemone "hosts", the clownfish "associate") but they can damage corals so be on the lookout for that.
