My girlfriend's taken the reins on this one.
She's set her heart on two clowns - one in black and white, the other in orange and white.
I'm just wondering if they'll thrive in my 130ltr tank.
I've got a few other fish lined up, not sure if it's relevant but thought I'd share my stocking list:
- CiKalidos Clown Goby
- Bicolor Pseudochromis
- Firtideflow
- Black And White Clown Fish
- Orange And White Clown Fish
Thanks,
YF.
A pair of clown fish?

Take a look at this link, it might help: uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/index...34AAm9Et2. Or you can check this out. lol, the setup you're thinking of does look a bit unusual, to be honest.
Re: A pair of clown fish?
I'm even more confused now.
Should I just stick with one color for both, or does it really matter?
If I get them small, they should be alright in a 130ltr tank, right?

Re: A pair of clown fish?
I had a black and white one and an orange and white one, no issues at all. Just make sure you get a male and female pair, or unsexed juveniles, that way you'll be fine.
Re: A pair of clown fish?
Will they cross breed though?
Thanks for the info Rileyon.
Are they easy to sex, or is it a bit tricky?
I'm hoping to get them before they mature, fingers crossed.

Re: A pair of clown fish?
if they were to breed, it wouldn't cause too much of an issue - just some unique colour variations. at the end of the day, they'll both be occelaris clowns, so it's not like they'll produce anything drastically different.
Large ones are generally females. In a group tank, the biggest one is usually the female - and it's usually just one. If you've got a single large one, it's also likely to be a female. The rest of the clowns in a group tank are probably still unsexed juveniles.
