Possible confirmation of A. ocellaris associating with S. haddoni

[Winwood]

Although not entirely clear this video appears to show a natural association with S. haddoni and A. ocellaris. Takes place around 1:58.

Certainly A. ocelaris in this video, which appears to be taken in the wild somewhere in the Philippine islands, are living in association with S. haddoni

I used to work in a local fish store and when we got new arrivals the owner would often put occy clowns with haddoni carpets. Many times the clowns would jump right in without hesitation. This always made me wonder if the pairing happened naturally.

Wow! That's cool, another natural host for ocellaris. Fautin and Allen don't mention this in their book, but they also say perculas are hosted by H. crispa, and I haven't ever seen evidence of that in pics.

Yeah I think that book seems a little outdated and needs to be updated. I have found other videos and pictures of wild associations that aren't mentioned in that book. I always get excited though when I come across the outlying examples.
