Baby clowns and Anemones....

Hey y'all!! How young can baby clowns be by the time their introduced into an anemone?? I have my first batch they are 30 days old and just trying to plan ahead!! Thanks!!

It's not about anemone and clownfish interaction, it's more about whether or not they are large enough to survive in your system. For example, they need to be large enough to be protected from getting sucked into the overflow (if you have one). If you have enough light on your grow out tank, you can add an anemone any time.

Gotcha!!! Have about 30 babies in an IM AIO with some sponges in front of the overflows... Otherwise they def go for a ride! Gonna keep an XR15 above it. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't going to be a baby buffet in there if I dropped an anemone in!!
