Clowns host anything, even a heater stuck in the corner

Unfortunately my pair, who have never had a host before, decided to invite themselves into a goniopora today when I rearranged my tank. Never went near it before but today they start and also bit me about 50 times.

Clowns often choose odd hosts, there was a host species anemone no more than a foot from this featherduster. It lasted about a month, then she "discovered" the anemone and moved to it over the course of half an hour.
