    My clowns adopted an empty clam half turned upright for a nest. Every time I come close to it now they nip at my fingers....lol little bastards hurt too. I'm like you were, and don't even think about putting a nem in my tank, but this seemed to do the trick. They will also bed down in many other objects that have similar shape as a shell if this helps. Good luck with the Nem if you go that way. They really are beautiful creatures.

    people make them out to be alot harder than they really are, just keep up routine maintenance and youll be good. really they dont come close to being as sensitive as any sps corals, yet everyone keeps those at some point it seems. well of course if an sps dies it doesnt kill your tank!! blah

    They used to sleep at the top until I accidentally left the shell overturned. Just thought I'd toss an image out.

    When I first thought about getting a nem this site gave me a lot of input. I hope it helps you out too. Good luck.
