Default adda perc

Maroons are way more aggressive than Percs or Ocellarus.
I just made sure the "New Guy" was significantly smaller than the resident female.
He should grovel and dip, she'll "fish-wife him" but shouldn't be in any real danger.
Now a Mama Maroon...dun-dun, dun-dun....outa the water!
Good Luck

the maroons also do a nice job aquascapping. its great if you need lots of free room on the top of the tank and a pige pile of upside down coral at the bottom, they do an outsanding job of handling these little details for you.

I was actually going to pick up a maroon clown in the next couple days. Is it only the perc's oscilerus clowns that do better in pairs or would a maroon be happier with a buddy?? Also I only have one bta so if I did get more than one clown I doubt they would share??? so whats better 1clown + 1 annenome??? or 2clowns+1annenome??

I wouldn't mix clown species - particularly when you're talking about a maroon.

well today i got my other clown fish. I brought it home and let the bag float. My other clown kinda looked at it didnt seem to care at all. So I accumed it then i put it in a netted breader box. Still my clown didnt care i let it sit for about a hour nothing??? So i said screw it and put the clown in the tank. Right away my clown did a dash for the other one. Side by side the stood i watched and nothing. They have been swimming side by side like they where buddies forever. Now my sailfin dont like that he was in between them both push the new clown around but yet the clown look at the tang as it was going PFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!! Who do u think u are LOL So now i have 2 clown fish and instantly my old clown looked happy!!!!

LoL now do u think i should get them a anemone hehe

Thats great that they paired up what type of clowns are they??? In a bit of a dilema trying to decide if I should get a pair of matching clowns or just one seeing as I only have one annenome.
