Black ocellaris owners - Which anemone do you have?

[ozadars]

Hi there,
As the title says which anemones host your black ocellaris other than natural hosts?
Why I ask is because I see most of them hosting bta's, especially rbta's. I was wondering if they are more easily hosted by bta's than regular ocellaris or perculas.

my BW ocellaris used to live in LTA and now in RBTA

RBTA and GBTA

xBTA, H. crispa, Haddoni, etc..... Mine are not picky.

If you can also tell how long did it take for anemones to host the clown, the thread would be more informative.
It seems like black ocellaris are not picky about their anemones.

First quartet arrived as juveniles, ORA captive raised, called a group of BTAs home within minutes.

Have moved them around numerous times, and adopted new anemone species within hours.

Magnifica. Small juvenile took about 30 seconds to share with an established female true perc.

[Aaarrrggg]

RBTA... gotta love that red and black!
My female took ~mth to find it.

The first time I introduced an anemone to my tank raised BW ocellaris it took them two weeks but for me it seems forever...lol

Scott, did they stay as a group, or split into pairs?

Dominant pair formed, with 2 juveniles. Lasted about 3-6 months. One juvenile jumped out, presumed chased. Remaining juvenile removed since it was the singular focus of abuse.

Mine have been in the tank with two very large btas for a year now, with no hosting behavior at all. They don't even notice the anemones. Instead, they hang out in the back corner of the tank below the return.

My female loves my Blue Haddoni and the male has taken to my Xenia close by. They took 6 days to be hosted.
