clownfish question.
i currently have a bta in my 75gallon tank. a porcelain crab lives with him. a friend of mine is moving across country and is giving me all of his livestock, including a tomato clownfish. my question is, will the clownfish and crab try to compete for the anemone or can they both live in peace together. if there is an issue i have another tank i can put him.
thanks for any help you might give. rachel |

Re: clownfish question.
I would think the porcelain crab would just move down the side of the BTA and the clown will live on top.
That is, if the clown take to the BTA. It might not want to host in it for a variety of reasons. |

Re: clownfish question.
The BTA (Entacmaea quadricolor) is a natural host for the Tomato Clownfish (Amphiprion frenatus), so it is very likely that they will hook up together.
