    a lot of fish act differently... clowns usually always bite at it, wrasses either ignore completely or flash at it like crazy, tangs usually ignore it but the occasional one will tail swipe at it! haha

    I bought them together! If you see a clownfish and anemone hosting in the store, buy them both together! I had this same problem but if you do this, then you know its 100% guarantee! :)

    BTW: This is my 1,000 post!! :) :) Yah!!!
