Two BTA's which recently both split. That rock that you see them on has 5 on it right now. One is behind and a little lower on that same rock.

wouldn't you know it, low battery on the digi. Gotta recharge
When you get it recharged post a shot if you get a chance

Anemones can be very difficult to care for. In the anemone forum on the other board apx 75% of the posts are from hobbist who didn't have the right conditions for an anemone and their anemone is heading south! IMO you need at least a 6 month or older tank and extremely good lighting (MH is recomended or a lot of PC or VHO depending on the species of anemone you plan to keep).
Anyone have any luck getting a clown to host to Condy's?? I have 2 different Condy's and an Alveopora and my 2 tank raised percs could care less
Condys are known for not only eating tank fish but they are notorius for eating clowns as well! In the wild I don't believe that there are any clowns that regularly host in Condys. I have heard of a few Clarkii Clowns and Large Tomato Clowns hosting in Condys in captivity but your best bet (providing you have the proper conditions) is to get a BTA which is known to host certain clowns in the wild and captivity. BTAs are still very difficult to care for but as anemones go they are one of the easier species.
