I don't think I could ever keep those larger clowns like skunks and tomatoes.

Even percs get too big for my liking so maybe I just like juvie fish!

The female is maybe 4 or 5 inches, not overly large I would say, but I've had her since my very first tank ten years ago and believe me she has been through a lot while I learned about this hobby. She is a survivor. I guess she's earned the right to be a little bossy.

I as well got a clarkii for my first fish 4-5 years ago. its huge and aggressive and has drawn blood a bunch of times. I got so mad once that I wanted to huck it out the window but I kept her and I use the gloves also when cleaning

A friend of mine has the same problem with his perc attacked his arm all the time when he sticks his hand, its funny when you're not the person it happens to. I wonder if the hybrid variety like a black ice can live that long....
