    They might IMO - depends on the clowns
    I have had them hosting, bubble corals, and even elegance corals , so I feel , they could choose to host the 2 species of LPS you mention above

    Yes they will, but the clown might get stung by the euphyllia. I know of one guy in our club that has a pair of percs in his tank that lay eggs on the base of their host euphyllia coral.

    I have an ocellaris that hosts in a big frogspawn. No black spots on it yet from the coral stings, but I am sure it would rather be in one of the 2 BTA's that the maroon clown is hoarding.
