Maybe she got tired of waiting for a more handsome anemone to show up... although that one looks pretty "eager."

Where do you get true percs :question: . I have one lonely one, and he needs a buddy. I don't see any locally. :sad:

I'll be getting them from J&L, Doug got a couple captive bred from them. I expect the ones locally are wild caught.

Well I am going to brag.. When i got the Bubble Tip from Bob_I (A split from Tony's) my Clowns took to that Anenome within hours (24 hours max) <grin> then it took a month or so for the female clown to allow the male to Join her...

a while back had a heck of a time getting my clowns into an anenome. Someone here suggested showing them a picture of a clown in anenome. I did and two days later they were in. Coincedence? who knows. sidebar that anenome in the pic looks reaaly close to some sort of intake. Had an anenome get caught in intake once. Yikes what a mess. It survived but still has short tentacles on the one side.

Well... animals can learn through modelling... although I don't think specific research exists on this topic. But I don't feel it was a coincidence.

optical ilusion the intake is about 8" infront of it. he was living on top of the power head for a while but settled in the spot he is in in that picture.
