I'm not too keen on anemones because of their path of destruction they can cause. I tried a frogspawn once with no success. I'm going to keep an eye on them and see what happens.

Pair of mine host any thing that has soft tentacle. If i remove anemones, they will dive right into one of my torch, and if i remove torch, they dive in my frogspawn.


It is awesome to watch them

I agree with you there. They add character to my tank. Stubborn fish keep getting burned but go back for more.

This is starting to get out of control. My clowns have started to spawn and laid eggs near the same zoas. Now the clownfish is really getting burned badly. I'm going to post some pictures soon.

Here is the clown and the zoas below it are the ones it lays in. The eggs are behind the blue zoas.

Bonehead fish......the best relationship really is with a nem.....when clowns host in corals one of the two parties involved will usually end up getting hurt....with the possible exception of hairy mushrooms....Ive seen that "relationship" work out in the past.
