Ocellaris clowns/anemones

[Jerry W]

For those with ocellaris, what anemones do you have that are hosting them?
In your opinion, what are some good choices for anems for this sp. clown. Thanks.

Their natural hosts are magnifica, gigantea, and mertensii. The first two are very hard to care for, and the last on is almost never imported. I would suggest starting out with a BTA/quadracolor. Ocellaris will use them as a host, but it may take some time.

Thanks EC. Appreciate that info. As I recall, the quadracolors are relatively hardy too.

Yes. They are the easiest of the host species to care for, and the only one that is regularly propagated in captivity.
