Hi all

I just bought a carpet anemone, and was hoping some of you can offer advice on care. i heard sometimes clown fish will bring food to their host. anyone ever seen this or know how to get a clown used to the anemone?

What kind of clown do you have? Not all clownfish host in carpet anemones.

Target feeding anemones may be fine if you don't have enough light to sustain them that way. What kind of light and tank do you have?

Lastly, my clowns SOMETIMES bring food back to their anemone. However, it doesn't seem like enough to keep the anemone alive in my case...hence the bright lights.

Good luck, but ask for care before you buy.
