    Default Hosting Clownfish

    My snowflake clown has started hosting with this big green shroom (over 6-inches in diameter). I notice the mushshroom closed the other day after feeding and the clown was still darting in and out of it. Hopefully its not a fatal attraction...

    I have been trying to get my clowns to host the anemone but all they have been doing is stealing its food

    I had bad luck with anemones...eating fish, stinging corals, and finding powerheads. I'm glad the shroom is working out so far. None of those problems yet.


    @MizTanks... I just thought I would have a little fun with the photo. Gives it a different look for sure.

    Sometimes it takes occelaris quite a bit of time to take to bubble tip. Give it time, or think about getting a long tentacle.
