Just abit of a fun thread really :) Wheres the oddest place your clowns have hosted?
My pair of percs host everywere except my anemone! They host in the feather dusters, in the torch, the hammer or the frogspawn :p Its great seeing them in the feather dusters though, just lying on them :lol:
 
My clarkii pair (long gone) used to host in a patch of Halimeda algae. Clarkiis are typically very likely to host whatever looks even remotely similar to an anemone. If even read about them hosting a fish; while initially reluctant, the host eventually became very pleaed with constant food offerings and a free bodyguard.
 
I've seen them hosting feather dusters and hair algae...
 
My Perc clown doesnt seem to host anything. Spends most of his time near the front of the tank and it has sometimes dug itself a "bowl" in the sand but it tends to move around the tank quite a bit. Is that normal?
 
Mine has his favourite places above the powerheads or nearby the ph sensor, but somethimes he is drifting around the whole tank. Mainly he leaves his favourite places when he gets disturbed that means too much light at night or taking a water probe or the like but sometimes there seems to be no reason for wandering around.
 
my clowns have hosted my brain (first, for the longest time) then the torch (the brain wasnt good enough) i think the torch caused some damage cause they got some sting marks, but they should have gotten used to it. Now they just choose between the xenia and the torch, but there only there during the night for sleeping.
 
My clowns hosted my heater for awhile, until I moved it down into the sump. They weren't very happy :no:
I haven't noticed them host anything else since. But where the heater used to be, they still hold as their territory.
 
torch coral for ages, but the torch didn't survive my moving house and it stays under a large toadstool now instead
 
My maroon clown hosted in a big patch of polyp corals when his anemone died. I tried a cheap haitian anemone and now he has taken to that. I was afraid he would damage the polyps.
