Hey, I got a maroon clownfish in my tank.  He seems to be trying to host the corner, and the pump return.  He swims stright up and down against it and around it.  Is there anyway to coax him out and into my Xenia or something?  Thanks

They have a mind of their own.  One of our clowns used to host our mag float.  Now my clowns host my zoos.  I have 7 anemones in the tank but they each host a different colony of zoos.

Very true. They will do as they please. Ive had times when for some unknown reason they change their hosting place. Good luck.

I agree with everyone else. They host where they want to when they want to. I have 3 different BTA's each in different areas of the tank. depending on the day, the clowns will be hosting at a different location.  I think they are just "sharing the love"
