Congrats man. Mine is not hosting either and it's p*ssing me off. I tried taping a picture of a clown with an anemone; it has worked some some, but not me.

in one of my older tanks my clowns took almost one year to host an GBTA now the one clown i have left from the three chose to host a pulsing xenia

Congrats! Silly clownfishes. Ours refuse to go in either anemone that we have and are hosting the frogspawn. It is extremely frustrating, especially since they are a bit blotchy(I think from the coral not being happy with them and them getting stung--from what I've read)... I'm just hoping the anemone will let loose a big ol' dookie and the clowns will wake up. That is what it took the last time for our clowns to find the anemone... though that anemone made a light snack of those clowns. :*(

Thats cool. I started with four clowns and 3 died of fungus. When I finally got a BTA anemone the last clown hosted right away. I guess it was lonely and scared. That clown taught my new clownfish to go into the anemone. Now when I try to remove an anemone my large old clownfish bites me and actually holds on for a while. Good thing occellaris clowns don't have teeth like clarkis.
