Male clown in the "doghouse"
 
I dunno what he did to **** her off so much but my male clown is suddenly not allowed back in the anemone. She chases him away when he tries to go back home.

They have been a pair for about 2 years. They grew up from 1/2" babies in a bubbletip anemone and about a year and a half ago moved to the current carpet anemone. They have always been together until suddenly last night she kicked him out!

The anemone is about 12-14" across so lots of room. Any ideas?

Maybe he got a little too friendly with the new angel? I dunno though, his girl is pretty hot and the angel doesn't really look like his type :wink:

Maybe she heard how you were treating me and is done with men?

Tossing that out there as I know you're looking for meaningful responses :biggrin:

Funny cause my fiancee's theory was that she is "probably done with men" :lol:

Did she ever forgive him and allow him to come home?

he was allowed to come close... but she claimed it.. they would visit above the hosting spot.. but no he was never allowed back in! lol

Wow this is crazy...

I just watched as he fought his way back in to the anemone and proceeded to kick her out! It didn't last all that long though...she is much, much bigger and kicked him back out.

I don't like all this domestic violence happening in my tank!

They ever have offspring? wondering if there's some outstanding child support...something like that?

Maybe he has decided to change into a she. :wink:

No child support yet. They have always been together. I hope they work it out cause I really don't think its fair that she gets to keep the anemone.

If they don't I might take it away from both of them for a while until they appreciate all they have. Not that many clowns get a large healthy carpet to call home ;)
