Well...it took 4 months but one of the pair of Ocellaris is finally hosting

[E-A-G-L-E-S]

After four months one of my two Ocellaris is now hosting! I added the anemone as my first coral. I wanted it to find its' "happy place" and hopefully settle before adding my SPS frags. After just one day he found his spot and has stayed since. was looking rough but had crazy looking tips, so I thought I would nurse it back to health. It is 'very' slowly regaining some red pigmentation. It was a bleached rbta thatI have filled in the 40g breeder with very nice sps frags over the past 3 months and as they atarted growing I became concerned about the anemone one day taking off and walking around. Adding to that concern was the thought that my Ocellaris mated pair might not ever host in it.
But I noticed the dominant of the pair getting more curious lately and then today he dove in! It is funny, he is using it to lay in, he wiggles in and then lays motionless in the tentacles for a few seconds.(or as long as the tentacles support him in that specific position)
I would have more pics but he swims to the glass thinking I'm about to feed everytime I try to get close for a picture, haha.

Nice, mine keeps spitting food at my anemone but has not hosted yet. Time will tell if he opts to host in it.

Updated pics....how long does it typically take for the dominant ocellaris to allow the submissive to host the anemone as well?
