just yesterday our maroon clown was just starting to host in our hairy mushroom.

They will host almost anything with long tentacles. It may take a while for them to host it though. Torch Coral is a very nice one also.

ah i can't resist, my clown, wiggles, in a top down shot of his torch coral, euphyllia glabrescens....

waterfaller.. do your clowns evr host in your R BTA`s, or do they seen to love your leather?

I cannot afford the expensive lighting anemonies require right now, so, is there an artificial anemonies on the market I could get for them in the mean time (i.e. rubber)?

Bump

 

[shouse]

yes there is. I would try chain pet stores around town. Incredible pets has them where i live. BUT, big but, their GAY!!! i would never stick one of those in my tank. But that's just my opinion.

Do you have enough light for Hairy Mushrooms?

I have a 50/50 15W florecent.
Thinking about looking into a 165W PC.

if you go the anemone route yes you need halides, but any other coral seen in this post can easily be kept with pc's and the right water conditions.

I have a clownfish and a hammer coral. I have seen a lot of clowns "snuggleing" up to them but my clown stays far away from it. I think he is tank raised. In fact my clown stays away from all of the corals in the tank...he seems to be a bit anti-social.

What's the diffence between a torhc coral and an anemone? Will percs more often host for soft corals than just anemones? Will other clowns do it or just percs? I had a perc, and it never hosted with my two anemones. My anemones do fine with PC's too.

A torch is a LPS coral with a hard skeletal base that it can retract into. An anemone doens't have that it is completly soft bodied and can move around.
