My tank-raised true percula hosted in amy xenia as well. He liked it so much he killed it! The xenia would nevr open up fully when the fish was in it.

I now have a BTA in the same tank as the true percula and it doesn't even care. Go figure.

From everything I have read the tank-raised ones are much less likely like to host in an anenome and there is also a chance it may host in something you don't want it to.

I figure since I don't really have anything else for the fish to host in, if I put in an anemone chances are it will host with that--rather than one of my 4 little mushrooms, some zooanthids or one of my 5 sps...   But still looking to get the anemone first.  Figure it will settle in better.

Also, keep in mind that many of the "black percula clowns" sold are actually captive raised ocellaris clowns.



This is a nice chart. One question though, if there is no check mark in a square what does that mean? That they won't host or that you don't know? I have had GSMs and Saddle Backs host in E.Quadricolor. Also, I have never had an ocellaris that wouldn't host in an E.Quadricolor.

Just my experiance.

Torghn,

To tell you the truth I haven't really looked or changed this chart in over 3 years.  It has constantly been a work in progress.  Most of the information represented in the chart has been from my personal experience.  If anyone else has any feedback I will gladly accept it and change my chart if I can verify a couple sources.

Another chart that I found was http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2003-10/hcs3/. I haven't bounced it with Jake's but I am sure that there is alot that we still don't understand yet about what can and will happen. I do know that my domino damsel took to my bubble and LTA but my false perc's wouldn't go near them.

Well, different factors came into play.  One lack of an affirmative id on black clowns, two wife's thoughts and opinions and mostly $$$$$.  So last night I ended up purchasing a pair of ocellaris clowns, 'bout 1.5", for less than the price of one black ($20 vs $29).  I'll have to wait until I can afford the blacks--maybe next year when they aren't so 'new'.
