    I have had a gold bar host a clam. Clowns are equal opportunity hosters.

    Not saying that they won't host in a Condy but its really odd, something about the sting of the condy and clowns and the time it takes for clowns to become imune to them.

    And Clowns will host almost anything,I have a GSM that splits its time between a Large fuzzy mushroom and a softball sized piece of Hammer I have.

    Yep. You never know what they might. Mine wouldn't touch anemones but hosted a patch of zoas. Seen quite a few that try to host clams as well.

    In symbiosis and relationships, when given only one choice most people will usually take it no matter how poor the fit.

    I have a Perc hosting and orange plating coral right now. First time I have seen that. Must like it because it's the same color as him?
