Clownfish hosting question
I noticed that ever since my Clownfish started hosting my Goniopora Flowerpot, that it doesnt open up and extend as fully as it used to. Is it possible that it doesnt want my clowns living in it? Even at night when it is fully retracted and just looks like a green rock the clowns still rub against it. Should I do anything?

Wouldn't worry about it. This happens in the wild too. It will learn to live with the clowns. My frogspawn has been hosted by my clowns since day 1 and it has its good days and bad when it comes to PE.

I don't think relocating would work, my clowns love my frogspawn....no matter where it is.

Not much you can do. Get them an anemone.
