Hi Kev,

Theres a couple of pairs of true Percs in this week the nicest pair is one of mine from home with me moving house I need a good home for them they are a cracking colour and Ive had them for two years or so, you can have them for £50 English pounds as long as you promise not to let the Panther Grouper anywhere near them! Im sure you will look after them as sad it is they are called Marlon & Nemo by our five year old God I wish I had a Quid for every time I hear those names!

Take care mate

Hello Kev

Hey Jason,

Some good news, I have found someone to take in the Panther Grouper!

Looking forward to coming to see the percs on Sat, I don't want to take in a nem at the moment and was thinking they may take to a toadstool or elegance coral, don't know if they would maybe bother the coral too much tho. Any ideas?

Hi Kev,

Good news for the Panther Im pleased for it,

Nems are tricky things to keep especialy long term (we dont usualy hold them in the shop unless a customer requests one) due to their low survival rate in captivity personaly I dont recommend keeping them. Corals generaly withdraw when the clowns try to host in them some like Sarcophyton Leathers will work though, we've got some lovely Elegance Corals in but they would want to devour the clowns rather than let them host in it!!

We should fingers crossed have the Salaris lights in by the weekend as well.

See you on Saturday mate

haha, right, may be a good idea to avoid an elegance coral sure ive heard people say their clowns have hosted in them like....

Think I will keep on the lookout for a large creamy white sarcophyton :D

My clowns host my Torch and frogspawn corals. Worth trying them with one of them.

My breeding pair of clowns are hosting in a large (6" diameter) sarcophyton leather coral. The coral is happy enough and is still growing. At night, the coral closes up and the clowns just hang around underneath it.
