Default Finally my clowns found an anemone they like!

First off, it's been a while since I've posted, so my apologies. Going to try to get back on here more often.

I have lots of updates on my tank, but wanted to share this one first: My clowns are hosting in an anemone!!

I had tried a few different ones and they finally fell in love with a carpet anemone I brought home yesterday! I was so excited!

You can read all about the details here ==> My clown fish are hosting!

Here's a couple of pics

They can get "very" large quickly. I had a Ritteri that reached 18" in less than a year. Carpets can get in the feets!

Can you trim them back or do you have to wait for them to split?

I can initiate a split, but it could also kill them.

I'll be upgrading to a 125g or maybe even bigger before the end of the year. Just waiting to move into our new house. I bought it with that in mind.
