    Tank raised. (ORA to be exact)
    I know it doesn’t “need” one, but I want to see it host something that looks like an anemone.
    tank raised clowns are more likely to host anything. I used to have a cinnamon clown that hosted a corner of the sand bed.

    My bad, I guess tank raised would be the correct term. And you are right they will still host. Just not so important about any certain thing for it to host, rather just that it has SOMETHING TO host. No matter what that may be..

    Tank-raised and tank-bred are two different things. You can catch baby clowns and raise them in a tank until they're adults, and you get "tank-raised" clowns. You can have a pair of clowns breed, and you get "tank-bred" clowns.

    I didn’t know that
    He is an ORA clown, so I think he’s tank bred.

    OK so I was referring to "tank-bred clowns", as they are not known to their natural environment in nature.

    Correction: They do not know their natural environment in nature.

    This is the one I’ll probably buy, but I want to make sure it a good product.
