I have a Ocellaris Clownfish and a Long Tentacle Anemone, I very much want my Ocellaris to host with the anemone but it just aint happening. My Ocellaris seems to like my heater better. Any suggestions. Or should I return my Ocellaris for a pair of Pink Skunk Clownfish.
How can I coax my clown fish into hosting with my anemone?
You'll probably have better luck with the skunk clowns - they naturally host with the LTAs but Ocellaris clowns don't. There are very specific relationships with which clowns use which anemones (and some anemones aren't used by any clowns). You can find better matches for your anemone (or clowns) by looking at the pairing in this link: http://clownfish.webreefs.com/clownfish_...
Reply:It may simply not have an interest in your anemone. It's very possible that a pair of pink skunks may also be uninterested. Clowns can be fickle fish when it comes to finding a host anemone or coral. I bought three different corals thinking that my cinnamon clown might use one of them as a host and then had to laugh when it used a patch of star polyps instead.
