RBTA what clown will host in it

[want2reef]

I lost my two True Percs to Ich a couple of weeks ago that hosted in my Frogspawn:( .

Now I have a RBTA and was wondering what would host in it.

Thanks

try cinnamons, clarkiis, or Tomato they seem to head for them instantly. the e.quad is their natural host anemone I believe.

I have 2 captive bred ocellaris that host in mine. It took them about a month to find it.

my cinnamons went from the bag to my hand to the anemone in under 2 mins. TR Ocellaris sometimes will never host, and if that is the behavior you want to observe either get one of the bigger body clowns or WC Perculas.

This goes for wild caught ocellaris as well. Never is a long time, but I had a pair of WC ocellaris that went 4 years before accepting the BTA in their tank.
IME, TR ocellaris or perculas accept bta's at about the same rate as their WC counterparts, not very quickly.

Don't forget the maroon's. :)

Thanks for the replies.

Anybody think I would have chance a Saddleback would host in the RTBA?
