New Clowns and Anemone Question

[lietz06]

I just bought two perc's today and a condy anemone. I just read that the condy anemone doens't have any sort of relationship with fish and it's really rare for a clownfish to reside in them. Is that true?

Or has anyone had any luck? I guess I should have looked into it-LFS said they should host-bah!

some clowns host anything its just if the nem decides to eat nemo or not

A condy is not really a good anemone for hosting. Many fish wont go in a condy and those that do sometimes wind up as lunch. Dont get me wrong, there are many who have made it work successfully but the odds are against it. I would keep that condy WELL fed.

If I get a different anemone and they go to that one, will my other condy anemone still eat them-or shoud I take him back? Or am I over reacting?
