I have a BTA that was reciently added to my tank. I eventually want to get a clown fish to host in it. However at my LFS the tank raised clown fish are about 1/3 of the price of a reef raised clown fish. Is there any likelyhood that a tank raised clown will host?

Thanks.

Of course there is, just because it is tank raised doesn't mean it won't host.
