Well, that anemone is gone and I have some rose LTAs in my tank that are just thriving so far.

Problem is - my clown could care less about them. Boourns, I say.

I know that it's not a requirment for either the clown or the anemone to have the symbotic relationship, but gosh darn it I want it!!

Any tips? I've heard putting the little clownfish veggie clips or PVC tubing near the anemone and simple patience is the best, anything else from those who've done it before?

TIA!

My uncle has had a few percs that didn't host with anything for over three years of being in a tank, then they hosted powerheads, leathers, frogspawns, hammers etc..(his tank is over 3200 gallons though) I think they will host when and if they want, for instance my buddy has a maroon clown and a true perc(nemo wannabe) and the maroon hosted within 20 minutes of being put in, the other has been in the tank for a year and a half and just sits in a cave.
