  • Beautiful.......That looks like a nerve racking place to be a Chromis!!

  • @tundrashaul2324 Thanks for the comment, actually, the chromis did not seem to interact with the clowns or anemones at all.

  • @Mobert Great aquarium! is it yours? I read that clowns have a coating on them which tricks the anemone into not detecting the clown as prey and therefore accepts the clown in a sybiotic relationship. The study also removed coating of a clowna nd anemone killed it.

    Anyhow, EXCELLENT aquarium. How long did it take to make this?

  • @agenthelios1 Hi, thanks! Yes, my aquarium. The clowns were born Aug 2005 so they are almost six years old now but I got my first rose anemone in 2001 and it has grown and split exponentially since then. I got my original green anemone in 2006. They grow and split pretty regularly with the right conditions.

  • @konafishlover Thank you for your comment. However, these clownfish and anemones are tank bred and raised. Also, most all the corals in the tank are also tank propagated and are many generations ago removed from the ocean. Home aquariums maybe the last remaining source of these beautiful animals. It is easy to blame the hobbyists but in most cases, we do not know why coral reefs are suffering.
