I've had a medium sized frogs spawn for quite a while now I then bought some clowns and they tried to host it straight away which I then read was bad for it and will eventually kill it so I bought a bubble tip anemone. The clowns have now hosted the bubble tip bit I'm afraid the frogs spawn is struggling a bit. Has anyone got any ideas what I can do?
Many thanks

I think if there’s one coral that can survive without water it’s frogspawn so I wouldn’t worry too much. It may take a few days to recover.

Ok thank you that's a relief. I was hopping it will recover. Now the clowns leave it alone it should have a chance. Thank you for the advice
Many thanks
 
I have two clowns hosting a frogspawn and their doing great. At first the frogspawn was a little irritated but eventually got used to the two clownfish all over it
 
Clowns are notoriously rough on their host. Since euphillia are LPS, they can be damaged by clowns hosting them. There’s not a real solid way to get them to stop using the frogspawn as a host, but just know they *could* cause damage.
