Tube Anenomes

Clowns are known to sit in almost anything that resembles an anemone, other corals, other
non- host anemones, even feather dusters, to include plastic grass. A Tube anemone is
another issue==== dead clown fish. It is more of a hit an miss issue if it will accept
other "objects"==.trial and error by you and the fish.

Pszemol gave some good advice

: thanks for the reply---
: one other question---
: is there a type of anmonie that doesnt need special lighting that will

: tank---but I would like to have a simple Clown/anemonie relationship going
: on. Is there a way I can chieve this without the "heavy duty lighting"
: investment?

: : hi,
: : I had a tank back in the 80`s that wasnt a reef tank (special lighting)
: : BUT--- I managed to keep a beautiful Purple tube anemone for years in
: it. It
: : seemed to thrive and do fine with the brine shrimp and clam pieces I fed
: it.
: : I want to start a new marine aquarium w/o the hi-tech lighting. I cant
: : afford it. But I would like to have a nice tube anenome like the old
: days.
: : Did I just luck out years ago----or are these tube anenomes heartier
: than
: : others and formidable in a regular fish-only tank?
: : thanks for your help.
