anything to host bta?

[ponokareefer]

Sometimes clownfish just won't go in certain anemones. Pictures sometimes work(didn't work for me), but time may be the only thing that gets the clownfish to go in the anemone.

Give it time. It took six months for my clowns to start using my BTA as a host. Even now, they still go back and forth between it and my tiny sebae.

i phoned blue world and they said to try a clay pot, they will host in that and then slowly move the pot towards the anemone then they will host it....... so im going to give it a go

I would'nt get one of those red ones. My wife has those for outdoor plants. They seem to deteroirate over time in the rain. They seem to only last one summer than get really brittle. I would'nt want that red stuff floating around my tank. Just be patient. It will happen. Patience is one of the keys in a successfull SW tank.

We had to separate our clowns from the LTA they were hosting in a tank swap. Once in the new tank they would have nothing to do with the LTA for 6 months or better......they slowly warmed up and now are hosting. Sometimes they just take their time.

Try an anemone shrimp.
