Right now, I have a condy anemone, and feeding it is my favorite thing ever. I would like to have a long tentacle anemone with a clownfish residing in it. Will I still be able to feed it fresh seafood like I do with my condy, if a clownfish resides within it?

Domino Damsels usually host in LTA's, don't know if clowns will. And yes you'll be able to feed it still.

Macrodactyla doreensis, Long Tentacle Anemone - Column always red or salmon pink, with veruccae underneath oral disk. Buries column in substrate. Seldom confused. Natural symbionts are Clark's and Pink Skunk clownfishes; in aquarium often accepted by Maroon, Bluestripe and Tomato clowns, as well.

Host Clowns: Clark's, Mauritian, Pink Skunk, and Saddleback, but may accept Bluestripe, Maroon, Sebae, Tomato, and possibly other clowns in aquariums.

Is that the clown you got from me??? Looks at home in the RBTA. I felt so sorry for my clowns haveing to host in my huge open brain, but it doesn't seem to mind them.

Yes, that's him. Picked up the RBTA at B&Bs 3 days ago. He went right in.
