Thumbs up It's ok to swim in a Nem...

don't worry the clown is just rubbing against it alot and they also will shrink to take a poop tenticals will shrivel up also nothing to worry about. Clowns can be realy rough on a Nem when they first are getting use to each other once all is settled down the Nem will look great maybe even better than before as it will have a clown sitting in it and laughing at everyone passing by...

Mine does that fairly often and I've had no problems at all. Usually only lasts for a little bit

So, about 10 minutes after I posted this, I looked in the tank and was filling out it's tentacles, and the clown was all over it. completely making a liar out of me.. Then this morning it was all schrivelled up again. So, after seeing it last night make an almost complete recovery, I'll just keep an eye on it. Thank you guys for giving us hope, cuz I'd hate to loose this guy cuz he's beautiful when he's happy.

CAn you explain why you think its dead? The reason I'm asking is because mine has closed up for up to 3 days in the past.

How many months has it been since your tank completed it cycle?

The clown hosting in it will beat it up quite a bit and it will close up fromthis happening. if it is still on the rock I would say it is very much alive. even if it is not on the rock you would know if it died they start to detierate fast and smell bad. you would have to do a water change and add carbon to get the bad stuff out of your tank.
