There's actually two questions. What kind of anemones will an Ocellaris host? Also, can they host more than one over the course of their lifetime?
 
I have seen a pair of maroons host two different LT nems at the same time, as well as a torch coral, they just swam between them LOL. SO to answer your second question, IF they host one nem, its entirely possible they would host a different one later in life, BUT there is no guarentee that they will hose any nems at all ever, though they often host corals in place of nems.
 
Thank you. I've heard that captive bred clowns will host things like torches and hammers in confusion but a wild caught clown will only host an anemone because it knows better. Either way i was just curious to hear from guys here about hosting more than one so thanks.
