Can anyone tell me what the smallest/youngest size/age clown that will host in anemone? If the clown is very small will the anemone eat it or do the clowns have the ability to adapt with mucuos etc., at a young age? Thanks

They were three months old when they got this anemone.

From what I have read, once wild clowns go through metamorphosis, they must find an unoccupied anemone or be eaten.

Yup. That is from 10 to 20 days old usually.
