My bubble-tip has been in the tank for about 2 weeks now. Added the clown after the first few days. He wandered around for the first 3 days, but has been stable ever since. Sometime he "wraps up" the clown at nighttime, but other times his tentacles are withdrawn (like the last couple pics). The last 2 were taken shortly after fish feeding time, if that makes any sense.

I'm watching closely, since I've heard they can poison a tank. Just curious if he looks ok to you guys.

Thanks!

The color looks nice, its tentacles look inflated like they normally would be, it looks like it's solidly attached to the rock... It looks healthy. The fish does look a little big compared to the nem, and a clown that size can rough up a smaller anemone quite a bit and cause it to stay retracted. It is normal for the anemone to close up after eating. Don't be surprised to see it releasing a bunch of crap (literally) several hours after eating. Everything poops! ;)
