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

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.

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

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?

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
