Question re: Latz clownfish

[Loganeri]

I know a carpet anemone is not the natural host but does anyone know, or have evidence of a carpet (gig, haddoni, mertens) hosting latz clowns?

Most clowns will adapt to all anemones and will get hosted by any anemone as its what is there for them. My clowns hosed a torch coral and plate fungai till I got a S GIG

I hope my pair of latz clowns (coming tomorrow, yay!) will host the rose anemone.

A friend of mine had a pair of latz that were hosted by a blue S. haddoni.

H. crispa is their only natural host and my concern would be keeping a carpet, long-term in the cooler waters that A. latezonatus needs. The only two species of host anemone that are found in the cool waters where latz and A. mccullochi originate are E. quadricolor and H. crispa. Since both of those species of anemone are readily available, I personally would opt for a natural host.
