I got two clowns a couple weeks ago and thought I would post some pics. The only way to get a pic that isn't blurry is to use the flash. They won't stay still and pose for a pic.

try and get a small nem to host them

lol, its abit more complicated than that emmsy...you cant just go buying a nem...your tank needs to be setup fro AT LEAST 6 months, your lighting needs to be very high in standards, excellent filtration and they need feeding directly. No offence but if you were saying that to someone who hadnt done their research on nems, they would have gone out and bought one...and their nem would be doomed to die as soon as it goes in the tank :(
Nice clowns btw :good:
 
Thanks everyone! They are really cool. They get along fine with each other and are more curious then dogs when I go near the tank. They will even take food from my fingers. I think they are tank raised though.....so I am not sure if they will host anything or not. At the moment I only have soft corals. I will probably get a hammer or a frogspawn in a few months. No nems for me, though. It's just a nano tank.

Here's a couple pics I just took.

A great shot of my porcelain crab:

Oh aboslutely, but there was nothing to suggest this wasn't a mature tank, just that he bought the clowns a couple of weeks ago. I agree, if this is not a mature tank, then it is no to the nem

No worries Emma.
It is a pretty new tank, though.....I started it on Jan. 31st, but my stats are good and stable.
I'm waiting a bit longer before I put in any hard corals. I only have a 58 liter tank, so I don't want any nems.
We'll see if the clowns decide to host anything else. :shifty:
 
looks cool :) lot of coralline growth in there for a tank thats only been going a few months :good:
 
Didnt mean anything by it Emma :D
My clowns are CB and they host in anything, my bubble tip anemone, hammers, frogspawn, torchs, goniopora, toadstools :)
