    there are many exceptions, sometimes an o clown wont host its natural host when another nem is in the tank, you really can never be sure.

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Ok that dang pet peeve of mine, I can not control myself.

    Corals/Anemones= Host.
    Clowns= reside.

    No clown is a host.

    Thanks.

    HAHA, I got a good laugh out of this! I've been very careful about saying this in this thread... can't say the same for others.

    Others, consider yourself warned. Next time she'll show you how your head can host a bat.... ;D

    I routinely have to fight the urge to get a bta for my 150 mixed reef. I never have good luck so I know it would wander and kill everything I cherish. So right now my clowns are happy in a huge toadstool and I've placated myself with a mini maxi (these guys are cool, keep meaning to pick up another one actually...)

    I tried a nem once and it didnt go so well, moved around alot and killed some of my frags. I have clown that resides in my frogspawn. Has for months with no problems. I guess I didnt have the proper conditions for it because it ended up dying, I will never have another one, too big of a risk for me.
