Who Gives A Fish Forums

Hi,

I'm after some advice,
I want to keep a pair of maroon clownfish in my 100ltr tank, is it suitable for them to thrive?

100l for maroons is too small, they can get quite large. Maroons can become aggressive too. I'd look at a smaller clownfish species, like Ocellaris.

Couldn't agree more.

Thanks for the advice guys, I was thinking maybe just 1 clown would be alright? They only grow to around 10-11cm max, so would that be ok in my 100ltr tank?

Wouldn't even consider putting one in a tank that small, to be honest. A lone clownfish, imo, is just sad. There are plenty of other nice-looking, smaller species out there, I'm sure you'll find one that catches your eye if you can't get a bigger tank.

thanks for all your advice, really appreciate it. was thinking maybe a pair of percula clownfish or some pink skunk clownfish, what do you think?

They're a much better fit, in my opinion.

cheers,

which do you guys think is better, percula or pink skunk clownfish?

They're both good, to be honest. Similar behavior, just pick the one you think looks better.

I'm gonna go for a pair of percula clownfish, they'll look great in my toadstool coralflake.
