Clown changing homes?

[raisingtwo2006]

The maroon moved from the condi to my BTA.. Is that ok? The condi looks fine, is all out and wavey.. so is the BTA. But the clown is so much bigger than his new home..

Is that ok? Is it a sign that something is wrong with the Condi? He's been with that thing since June!

Clowns will commonly claim all the anemones in one tank as their own and spend time in each one.

If the clown is much larger than the anemone though it can be quite stressful on the nem. Hopefully he'll just move back and forth like a good lil clown.

Being that condis are not even found in a clownfish's native habitat, the clowns may instictively prefer one that is.

The clown maybe getting higher off of the chemicals from the BTA.:shades: I had a larger condi in the same tank as a small BTA and when they met up the BTA quickly killed the condi.:sick: I had white stringers all over the place. I pulled the dead little ball of what used to be the condi out added carbon and made the skimmer wetter.
