Damsel Question

[Bikinisalt]

Is it possible for a three spot damsel aka Domino damsel to have a relationship with a anenome. I have no clown fish in one of my tanks where I have a so called atlantic anenome, which kind of resembles a carpet. I found my damsel swimming in it like a clown fish.

Is this likely and okay? The anenome does not bother him.

And BTW Dean, do not tell me the only predictable fish is a dead one...:biglaugh:

Yes Damsels will host also. I have 3 dominoes and the used to host in a carpet anemone... If you research a littl online you will see that it does happen.

That's kool...Rick had the same situation. Okay I will leave things alone, so my guess is that the damsel will help feed the anenome.

Clownfish and damsels are in the same family

I had a domino damsel a while ago and it always tried to host an anenome but it couldnt cause my maroon clown was the boss of that anenome. Poor fellow aways tried when the maroon wasnt looking but never was successful.

I made a mistake previous to this thread. There is a pair of Marroon clowns in the tank with the damsel, but they don't care for the anenome. My bad.
