the other problem with clowns hosting things that arent anemones are they get scratched from sharp sides like rocks or coral skeletons.ive never used the pic trick but have used a mirror for a stubborn clown once and after a while it must have worked because now he hosts. and its always best to provide your clown with a new at least twice its size, the bigger it is the easier youll find for to host.clowns are attracted to many things from a nem but protection is a big one and a clown that cant fully be hidden by its nem may wander.IMO a clown that wanders isnt really hosting just shows interest my cinn clowns wander although you can find them in the nem most of the day, but my skunk never leaves ...ever more than a few inches.he will starve if he cant get food close enough he will protect his nem to the death, he will feed his nem and in my case he will travel across town in a bag with the nem only to be found when i get home lol.i have only ever had 2 clowns from about 20 and several diff kinds truely host and ive had every nem in the book lol.i find carpets are an easy host because of their size but some clowns like some nems and some dont.
