Well I was busy upgrading my newest tank, my first saltwater tank, the 50 gallon, and was only a skimmer and calc or kalk reactor short from it being complete, i havnt really got all the coral I want for it. Then outta the blue I had the cashflow that would be non existant in the future for me and took that opportunity to buy my new 120 gallon starphire rimless tank and sump n pump and stand and light system and have not had the cash for anything else like a skimmer or reactor setup for a while. Anyway my poor clownfish, which my hammer coral isnt big enough for him to host in, has taken a nice size zooanthid colony as his own to host in, i thought it was really funny but i feel bad cause he needs a good anenome to host in.... haha poor *******, Have you guys ever seen this happen?

Some clown will host certain coral when no anenome is present. Just keep an eye on it cause he can damage the coral. I have a clown which host green hairy mushrooms. its pretty cool to watch.

I had 2 percs hosting in my zoas when my anemone died. They moved around the different colonies. Never saw any harm, but they did move out alot.

I have 2 Clowns adopt a frogspawn about 2 years ago. The frogspawn got use to it and all are still very happy together.
