Anemones and Tangs

[hattrick58]

I put a bubble tipped anemone in my 80 g FOWLR and noticed that not only does my Maroon Clown love it but apparantly the Yellow Tang does too. Is this normal? I've never seen a Yellow Tang act like this. He is usually spooky and hides when someone approaches the tank, but now he hovers above the anemone, sometimes brushing up against it.

I don't think this is normal. As far as I know clownfish are imune to the stings. Tangs are not.

Probably just curious about the new tankmate...The tang has probably never seen an anemone before...

my yellow tang and coreal beauty angel swim in and out of my lt anemone all the time but i think it is usually trying to steal food
