clown in anemone all day

[grandmarm]

one of the false perc. has been in the anemone all day - the other one is hanging around the anemone.
is this the end for the clown? and if so can we buy another one?
thanks for you help

What do you mean by the end for the clown? As in death? He will not die because he's not in the anemone, they can live perfectly fine and healthy lives without one.

The other may not yet be acclimated to the anemone.

My false percs never venture far from their anemones, very rarely do I seen even one of them over 12 inches away from them, and then only if they don't have a clutch of eggs going.

if you mean "the end" that the clown in the anemone is going to die because it is in there so long, then dont worry. An anemone is a clown's home. The clown builds up an immunity to the sting so the anemone will not kill and eat it. Plus, the anemone wants the clown there. The clown should eventually come out to eat.
