Best place for anemone

[daniella3d]

YOu might want to replace those clown if they don't adopt any anemone. Sometimes it does not take long, sometimes it takes forever for them to get the idea, sometimes they never get it.

I had a single clownfish in my aquarium for a year and half that never hosted anything, then I got a tank raised occellaris fancy white and he started to go on my duncan, then the female started to do it as well and the duncan almost died from this aggression. I then bought a long tentacles and after 3 months there was still nothing hapening.

I decided to sell those clownfish and got some nice black ice occi and put a sebae in there and in a day they were in it. I bought a second sebase and now they are going from one anemone to the other and also a bit in my duncan but they don,t bother my duncan much so he's not upset like with the other pair.

I decided to give up on my first pair and get another and I am glad I did. Both are tank raised occellaris and both got the idea in less than a day.

BTW, long tentacles anemones become HUGE! mine as nearly 12" after a few months and it was not even eating.

I just wanted to back this statement up.

I've had a true perc clown for over 3 months now and over a week ago I got a RBTA. He couldn't care less about it. He swims in his little corner and never leaves the one side of the tank. So over the weekend I got a black clown from another canreefer and in less than 24 hours he was in the RBTA. It all depends on the individual clown I guess.

I'll post pics soon.
