As soon as I floated the bag, my established clown was very curious, so much that it left its Anemone, came across the tank and was hanging next to the bag with the new clown.
After acclimation I released the new clown on the far side of the tank away from the established clown as it is very protective of its anemone. Literally within 30 seconds the new clown found its way over around the anemone, the two clowns bumped noses, circled around the anemone one or two times, then they were both in it, I was stunned as I figured at least a few days would go by before this happened, and it literally took less than a minute.
One question I have is the established clown is now acting a bit different, it seems to "vibrate" or shake every so often. Is this a pairing ritual? Other than what I have read this is rather new to me, having a paired set of clowns. Anyway here is a Picture of the happy "œcouple" lol, sorry for the reflections, I was rather happy and wanted to rush to get these posted. I hope you like.
