I'm sure some of you have already done this, but I wanted to share my pics :). First I put the the Ocellaris (the female is the A. ocellaris.. .the male is an A. percula) in a colander with the bubble tip aneome.

They pretty much ignored the anemone until I turned out the lights for the night. The next day...

Good work my friend

Question was the colander kept at the surface of your tank? I have two percula and two BTA one very large 12" one small 5".

I will give it a while longer and then maybe try your idea

Nice BTA and great idea!! How much did you pay for that anemone if you dont mind me asking? What kind of lighting system are you running for the anemone too? I figured MH but just checking.
