 |  Just got a bubble tip some??'s
Just got a bubble tip today, i have two percula clowns just wanted to know how long does it take for clowns to accept it as a host?? also i have a Long Tentacle Anemone, only about 10 days intank i placed it by the rock and sand it moved under the rockwork, is this normal? it still is staying large about 4inches, once the main lights go out it seems to be alittle smaller. is this a slow downa nd see what happens wait a week or two and if seems to still is under the rockwork should i try and move it?

Viper, it is normal for the lta to hide. it will find a spot and possibly settle, the same for the bt anemone's in general will roam the tank until they find a spot they like about the clowns give them time, I've read some tank raised won't go to an anemone but all that I seen is wait a few days till they figure out that it's their friend! congrats on the new additions post some pics! | |

as long as they seem to hold there size and color i should be good, if they seem to lose that then take action. | |

About the clowns. there is another thread on here about putting a pic of a clownfish in an anemone on the side of the tank. you could give that a shot and let everyone know how it turns out.
