Is this a good sign?

I recently added a BTA to my tank with the hopes that it would be a host to my false percs. But as many have experienced nothing. My percs don't go near anything in my tank. The just stay in the front. But today I noticed my small perc going in reverse into my xenia. I've never seen him get so close to it before. is this a good sign that they may host the bta? One pic looks like he's actually in the xenia but he's not.

Could be, but may not be.
My "true" perculas have been in my reef tank with my RBTA for years and always ignored it. Now for the last 2 months, they have hosted in my open brain coral and defend it with a vengance!!
Clowns, especially tank raised ones (which I suspect yours are) will host unpredictably. Just enjoy it

This helps to prove (or maybe not) that even tank raised ones have an Instinct about this. The one in the pic still looks young, but he may get the idea some day.
Want to join the tape a pic to your tank and see if it works group?
