Can you post a picture of your pair of "lightning maroons" please?

Here's a couple pics. I plan on uploading more once I get them in their tank. (Currently in a breeder box)

just to respond to your original question, i have a 33g skimmerless and sumpless tank with one powerhead. It is working for me so far (> 2 years).

Nice fish, not as nice as the F0 but still unusual pattern. Do you know what generation they are?

reef-junkie 01-19-2015 07:39 PM

not 100% sure what generation. they came from sea and reef. I anticipate that they will get alot nicer with age. Theyre both still very small at the moment

I have a Yellow Striped Maroon that I have in a 14g biocube which is all his! Absolutely will be upgrading for him (a selling point to the wife as to why I need a larger tank!) as he grows but for now he is happy and master of the tank...!
Love this Breed of Clownfish and THOSE ARE FRICKIN RAD MAN.:biggrin:

If this breeding thing you speak of goes well, I'll take a few from Ya!:wink:

Good luck

33 gal is a little small for a pair of clowns...
You will definitely want to keep up on water changes.

I would say a 5 gallon bucket every week or two should keep you on top of nitrates.

Skimmerless and sumpless, are you going to add a dsb or have a significant amount of LR?

reef-junkie 01-20-2015 02:35 AM

I have a 4-5" sand bed and a ton of LR. Approx 60+lbs in total. Plan on doing weekly water changes and I imagine I'll eventually get a skimmer down the road and dose regularly with nopox

Thanks, I'm pretty excited about it. Already started the pairing process. Definitely not the easiest thing but I have a lot of faith I'll be successful in the end
