clowns trying to host

[jaynano]

i actually tried the picture method to try to get my clowns to host, AND IT WORKED, but hte problem is when my female went to the anenome to check it out or host, the anenome got all stressed out is this normal will the anenome eventually be ok and get used to it please help!!

wat do u mean by stressed out?
do u mean it closed up?
if so then yes its norma, cause if u think about it wen u touch a coral or an anenome it hides, or shrinks cause its defending itself and is scared
i got a coral today and my clown went to host it and the coral would never come out, but after like 2 hours it got use to him and he opened up
if u go to the photos thread, and look for "Vic's 55 gallon" u can c my tank and my clown hosting his new coral

Hey, I just got a long tentacle anemone, and I'm trying to get my marroon clown to host (doesn't seem to want to go near it yet). What is this "picture method" you're talking about?
