My clowns are hosting the side of my wavebox

They love the thing. Clean the heck out the one side and back and rarely leave it unless its to get food.

They used to host some hairy mushrooms but after the tank move, they went straight to the wavebox and have never left.

What clowns host a Seabae anemone? I had one prior to my tank crash and had two false percs hosting an open brain coral instead of the Seabae.

Make sure the clowns in the pic are smaller than the real guys or they will just get scared.

Tomatoe clown does host seabae as far as I know. I used to have RBTA hosted by my true perculas clowns but after I sold it it went to host my Hammerhead. I also have two captive breed false perculas at my work and they are hosting well one of them is hosting my anthelia coral and the other one my heater haha(probably because its winter)

My two clowns host the front corner of my tank. Wake up in the morning and there they are cuddling in the corner....... weird fish.
