    2 cats and many hrs later.....

    What has your clown hosted?

    I have heard some interesting stories about clownfish hosting to things other than a host anemone. Just wondering (while I wait patiently for months to get fishies) what some people have experienced with hosting clownfish. :) Fun, unusual, not so good.... etc. :)
