I have been fustrated that my Maroon has not taken to this anenome :mad: but here is a picture of my arrow crab. A little hard to see, I need to practice taken pictures :bum: This crab always has a leg or two on the poor anenome, I think the poor thing has tried to move away from the crab a few times. Thought it was interesting.

Condy's(condylactis gigantea) are not natural clown hosts. They are from the Atlantic where there are no anemonefishes. The arrow crab is from the Carribean and the Gulf of Mexico, so it is more of a natural pair(not that it is common).
