The 2 white stripe maroons I have right now are too close in size. One is 3" and the other around 2".The smaller one is also not as tall or thick,but still close enough for the larger ones liking. These are the largest and smallest I could get at the store I found them at.
I figure a really large one may match up with my smaller one better.
My larger one can be later paired up with a small gold stripe.
I have a pair of gold stripes already too.The "male" was only 1" and the female was around 4.5".They paired up instantly.
I think if I can get a really large female my chances of pairing it with my small guy are good since the size difference will be greater.

I currently have my smaller one with the larger one.He is in a clear container in her tank.
I have tried 4 or 5 times now for a fish to fish encounter resulting in the little guy tanking a savage beating. He even tries to submit.
I don't want to get rid of either one of these fish as I like their stripes a lot.I can house them for life no problem in their own quarters no problem. I am also working on a new broodstock system.I'm not really a breeder,I just like clownfish.I am hoping the breeding thing will just be an added pleasure down the road.
