Clowns hosting GBTA

[toxic111]

Mine have been 3 or 4 months now I think, I'd have to check when I bought them. Right now they are guarding one of my open brains.

Mine just went in, after 2 years, i got a pair of maroons in there with out any problems and they hosted a LTA quite quickly, seems shortly after that the small perc went for a feather duster then i put my RBTA up to it and they jumped in, they look so happy, my feather duster isnt happy.

3 months for mine

[asylumdown]

Mine took 6 months, and the anemone had to go walk about, split in half, settle on the side of the tank the clowns hung out on, and grow large enough again (after the split) for them to pay attention to it. However, once they started, they were stuck to the thing. I even had to remove the clowns for a few days once to try and resolve aggression problems. In that time I re-arranged everything in the tank, all the rock, moved the nem, the whole 9 yards. It took the clowns about 7 seconds to find it and start loving it (and viciously, viciously defending it *sigh*) again.

I've only seen it once so obviously it's not exactly a scientific statement, but it was like a 'switch' was flipped in them, once it was on they would host in the first suitable place they found.

GBTA does the hosting, clowns are the guest

My clowns have a very nice GBTA in the tank and they choose to host my toadstool.
