    I know there is no sure thing but most likely what kind of Anemone will Maroon Clown host? Thanks.

    Maroon Clowns are arguably the least particular concerning host anemones, and can be found in most any available species, including the Atlantic Condylactis, which in nature, does not host clownfish. I do agree however, that, for a variety of other reasons, the BTA is your best choice. :)

    I've personally only ordered livestock from LiveAquaria, but with excellent results. My orders did include corals and inverts, BTW.

    Sorry to take over the thread with another question, but I am in the same boat looking for Anemones for my Maroons.

    What do you think about the Long Tentacle Anemone vs. the Bubble Tip?

    Personally I like the look of the Long Tentacle over the Bubble Tip.
