The colour on that carpet anemone looks really good, is it a species that clowns host in? Red/orange clowns would look spectacular in that green anemone.
Can't wait to see the new scape.

Yes clowns will host in it. I believe Maroon clowns are the most natural for the Gigantea anemone but I don't know for sure.
These anemones get very large and its not uncommon for many pairs of clowns to host in the same anemone. I haven't seen my clowns go near it but they rarely leave their bubbletip anemone and this new on is on the other side of the tank. I doubt they will ever find it.
I was tempted to move the bubbletip from them to see if they would go find the carpet but feel thats kind of mean. I am also tempted to try another pair of clowns (black) in the tank but that could go terribly wrong if my current clowns do see the new ones and get territorial. I may try a black pair eventually for the carpet if I have the guts to try it but for now I am going to just focus on keeping the nem happy.
Oh and yeah you get an idea there of how thick that Sailfin is!
I feed 4 of those 4"x8" sheets of nori a day plus a fresh seafood mix, so they all eat a lot. I will try to get a good picture of my rabbitfish...he is THICK.
