Will a False Percula host a Long Tentacle Anemone?

[RyDoggsReef]

Hey guys,
I have had my 40 gallon reef tank about 6 months now. I just bought a long tentacle anemone with green tentacles. Its about 4-5inches wide at the moment. Although its only been in the tank a few hours. I expect its size will differ from day to day. I have a tank raised ocellaris or false percula clown in my tank that i have had for about 5 months in my tank. I am wondering if any of you guys have had a similar situation and if you think the clown will eventually host the anemone? Or any suggestions.

I have never had a clown host an LTA but that is just my experience..

yes, I have seen pictures of ocellaris in LTAs before. They may or may not take to an LTA. It will probably be like an ocellaris accepting a bta as a host. It just takes time. BTW..the anemone hosts the clown

I dont know I think it would be fun for once see a anemone host a clown with it stuck on its back and swimming around. :lol:

Yes, I've been hoping my Ocellaris pair will host my BTA but no luck as of yet. I think LTA are more likely to be hosted by Ocellaris, though. I didn't get it because they are supposed to be harder to keep. Get a maroon pair or a true percula pair.
