LF Juvenile White Stripe Maroon

[EmilyB]

After the unfortunate demise of my large female maroon (to eel teeth), I am trying to find a small white stripe, so that my poor overworked male can become the bitch.

On your trips around the LFS, can you let me know if you spot some ? I know I saw a few gold stripes, on the juvies you have to look closely for the yellow.

I too have seen the gold stripes, and have pondered trying a pair of them later on. I've heard that they are evil as they grow and may not be the best tank mates for community living. What are you thoughts?

They don't like fish coming near their anemone, especially when they have eggs. In a large tank, I haven't seen much more than that. Of course, the female would tear up my fingers....

Bump, my he-she is lonely....

Hey Deb,
I think Al (sprinter) has a fairly large maroon clown he would like to see go to a new home and out of his refugium. Although I am not sure if the stripe is white or yellow. Might be worth a pm to find out.

Yep I'll second that mine tears back and forth from the big anemone to the little one and look out those in her path, still hasn't quite taken to the other one i put in, he was smaller so this might be interesting.

Thanks guys and gals, I don't want a large one, this guy is getting larger and should be the next female. Easier to pair. I'll try Wais, thanks again.

If you still haven't found one yet, the one I was talking about before has a white stripe.
