Would like to add Aneneme

[[ronnie]]

Hey guys, I have a quick question. I have a 24 gal AquaPod running MH (Sunpod) so i am sure my lighting is fine for an Aneneme.
However, i realllly dont know if i can have one.. being i have two clowns in my tank (orange/black) i would love if i can find a place for them to host.
My main concern is my Coral, i have spent a good 300$ or so on just little frags *ALLLLLLLLL on the bottom of the tank* and i would hate for the Aneneme to kill them all in the process of finding a good spot for his likings.
I do not have any crazy corals.. here is my specs..
I pretty much have all Zoas/mushrooms and they are all ont he bottom corners.
Fish:
- Nemo (orange)
- Nemo (black) *New!
Invertebrates:
- Nassarius Snails

First. How old is your tank.
Second. Have you done any research about anemones yet? Im assuming not.
Not all anemones are sand dwellers... really most of the ones you will find in the trade will likely attach to your rockwork or glass.
Anemones move when they are unhappy with thier environment. On average, an anemone should move to a spot and stay there within the first week Id say. Be prepared to move your coral to accommodate the anemone.
The anemone will not kill the coral if you pay attention to the tank and notice the anemone is bulldozing over the coral, just move the coral out of the way. Im sure repeated irritation and stinging can kill your coral but it hasnt happened to me yet.
I suggest browsing the forums to gather information on the different types of anemones, and peoples experiences. Then, see if you can find a healthy specimen locally.
Also, there is no guarantee that your clowns will host anything.. its all chance. Some clowns never host. Some clowns host ANYthing.

Clowns do not need an anemone to be "happy".
I suggest you PM Perfect Dark and ask hime some of your questions.
IMO you can have an anemone, but you are taking a chance because they do move about.
