Gold Stripe Maroon Pairing

[RCFA]

Well after 2 attempts and 3 days I am happy to say that I now have a pair of GSM sharing the same anemone! It was a bit dicey the first time but the second attempt went much better with him immediately displaying submissive behavior and the female backing off right away. The interesting part is that my Scopas tang seemed to be acting as a bodyguard for the little guy the whole time. Any time the female would rush the male, the tang got right in between them and flared his fins. After a few of these interventions the female cooled down and let the male come into the anemone. Has any one seen this when trying to pair clowns? Not too sure if it helped out at all but it seemed to prevent the little male from getting really beat up.
