Black and White anemone host

[Reefbuds]

Hey guys, looking to get the perfect anemone for my black and white. I've been looking into a bubble tip or L/T. Just looking for some advice on possible best anemone hosts for the black and white species. Thanks!

Natural hosts for ocellaris clowns are Heteractis Magnifica, Stichodactyla Gigantea, and Stichodactyla Mertensii. However these are also the most difficult to keep and find.I was lucky and found a b/w clown that was hosting a Lta in store. For a beginner I would recommend a Bta or Lta. even then it is a hit or miss with getting them to Host

its opinion but after i seen these rainbow or sunburst bta's so much color. and to add bta's splitt so its buy one get one or more

Yea I'm going to try and get a good size colored up rose bta. Seems like the best choice for me I just want to make sure my clown will be happy with it

iam not sure but my percula took to nem first and my oc got lonley and went in after. i played video's on my phone of clowns swimming in nems. my bta is 12inches so they had no choice but to be intrested . some people put them in strainers together till they bound or can try a pipe aproach put pipe over the nem and put clown down it . one good thing if you do try the pipe idea i think bta's stings are not the worst cause my tang and green clown goby bounce on the nem to try to steal its food and nothing happens to them
