New clownfish and LTA

[Sink_or_Swim]

Just wanted to share my new clowns with the group as I think they're pretty cute, lol. I hope the LTA will eventually host them!

Sometimes clownfish pick it up right away - other times it can take months (or longer). But once they do, it's like shag carpet for them - and good luck separating them from their newfound love.

Yeah I'm guessing the captive bred ones aren't as inclined to give a flip about an anemone, lol. But a girl can wish!

Almost all clownfish are captive bred which is why they sometimes take a while to figure it out. I had a pair that figured it out almost as soon as I introduced anemones to the tank (they unfortunately harassed 2 of them to death, so I try to add larger ones now).

I think I'll start feeding directly above the nem and see if they get used to being near it for food. Worth a little extra effort if it works! Even if they never want to love on the nem, it's still pretty to look at.
