Rabbit Fish lives inside my Toadstool

Has anyone ever seen this before? My golden rabbit fish loves to live inside my toadstool. At first I thought he was a goner because he was a new fish, but now I see that he really loves it in there.

Sorry for the poor quality, it's from my phone and the glass is dirty.

My tomato clown does the same occ. What's even odder is my tomato clown trying to host 1 of my large tridacnas and the clam stays open. Weird relationships...
 
Toadstools seem to be popular with a lot of fishes. I used to have a female Clark's clown that treated hers like an anemone (her mate probably would have too, if she'd allowed him near it). Funny thing is, once it got used to hosting her, the toadstool seemed to thrive and actually grew faster than it did without her.
 
I could see various clowns hosting non-'nems like frogspawn, toadstools, etc. - but a rabbitfish?! This is really interesting.
