Mine have taken to living in my leather finger. They like to sleep in it at night. I even have a GBTA but they like the leather finger better.

My clowns are camping out in a goniopora. We've had the goni for about a year and a half. The clowns started hosting their little party there about six months ago and the goni seems no worse for wear.

We also have a couple of nice GBTAs but the ocellaris clowns like the goni instead. They are captive raised and perhaps they do not know better. Plus I think I read somewhere that bubbletips weren't really one of their usual anemones.

Mine will host in a GBTA, but usually only the larger of the 4 fit in there... when the BTA decides to close up they all move to the forest of xenia above it and hide in there... one loner likes to go to the fuzzy mushrooms on the opposite size of the tank.
during they day they'l play around in the extended hammer coral forest I got.

lol.

My false perculas hang in my long tentacle anemone, my pink skunk clowns hang in my toadstool.

how long does it typically take for clowns to find something to host in or adapt to once they are introduced to a new tank?

MIne where in Zoa's, they've recently just been staying in the top corner of the tank. Getting my eco-rock order this week, so hopefuly the new aquascaping lets them find a home?

I assume you mean Mike,s ? They are in his 150g thread. Perhaps I will ask him to post them later.

Until my carpet arrives they have taken up residence in a branching hammer.
