    I disagree with this. Many captive born clownfish well never even host an anemone. For that reason, i dont see it as a necessity/big deal.

    I takes alot to offend mr MizTanks, and someone elses opinion obout something does not even come close, even if it's way diffrent than my own . Well from my uderstandig, clowns don't really need to host anything to be happy and specially to survive. They ofter host objest and make them their homes. Hosting for a clown is more like finding a home, but given the relationship between an anemone and a clown, people think that the clowns are ment to do that. It is not something that is engraved in their genetic makeup. We all have different way to care for our pets. What you see as insesitive, others can see it as overcaring. It's like a kid, you love him/her so much that when they grow up you fail to see them as adults. To the parent they are still they little boy/girl. Is it wrong to feel that way, NO, just remeber that people have different opinions and respect that. On the other hand if someone is abousing a child, than yeah almost everyone will say that's a NO-NO. Keeping fish happy is not as difficult as many people think. They are a life form a living thing, but In my opinion are not close to being a "human being like" living being. Respect life and treat it well and it will respect you and treat you better.
