Clown questions
 
I know the answer to the coming question is big NO but i am wondering if any have successfully housing these in a their tank and what size?

mated pair of false percs clown in same tank with a mated pair of true percs clown. false pair is currently host a BTA while the true pair host a frogspawn


Thoughts?

It really depends on the size of the tank, and the individual fish. I would consider it an option in a 6' tank, but a 4' would reeeeeeeeeeeeeeally be pushing the luck.

i have 6 feet tank and their nest are on each side if the tank. But the female false percs charge from one side to other side to charge the other pair as I introduced them to the tank. After a little scuffle, and i turned off the light, she went back to her nest. I will monitory them closely. It is kind of funny that my cinamon clown in the middle and sometimes, jumped in the middle and try to seperate the fight.

So you actually have 5 clowns in there of 3 different species? That's definitely pushing it.

Yes I know. So far so good, will monitor it closely and have a separate tank ready. It is so freaking hard to catch them now.
