I found Nemo
this my friends, is THE thing that got me into the saltwater hobby. I simply love the relationship between a clown and anemone. my first fish were two percula's. then a few months later a BTA. but, my lighting was insuffient and the anemone moved constantly and found his way into a powerhead after about a month. not to mention I couldn't tie those stupid clowns in the anemone. I was very dissapointed and heartbroke that I couldn't get it to work out. then about a month ago I traded the two perc's in at my lfs for a gold stripe maroon (which is by far my favorite clown) and the best deal I have ever made. I went coral shoping yesterday, and the first thing I saw was this beautiful BTA for 22 bucks! so I snatched him up in hopes that my new clown would host it. after getting the nem in the tank last night the clown immediatly swam to it, he acted like a dog on the scent of a stray cat, but couldn't figure out what to do at first. after about two minutes he turned a 180 and done a nosedive, right into the mouth of the anemone and sat dead still! after a few seconds of me thinking the bta was eating the clown he sprang out and started to wollow in the nem like a pup does in the grass right after you have given him a bath. It was the most comical thing I have EVER witnessed in my tank. needless to say I didn't move from my tank for three hours last night. just sat there in amazement of my simple little clown and his anemone. here are a few pics of them that I wanted to share.
