Coral Sea is another name for "Taken from the Great Barrier Reef".

Those look like Skinnimons to me.

Coral sea clowns are a color variation on cinnamon clowns. They were collected from the coral sea though...

Is it normal for a pair to ignore eachother? The female keeps burying herself in my RBTA and the male seems to have claimed an indip in the other side of the tank. When I stuck my hand in the tank, I accidentaly scared the male over to where the female and RBTA where, and she attacked him furiously. Immidiatly, the male rushed back over to his rocks. Will they always do this, or will they be friends? unsure.gif
When first put in the tank they were doing regular mating behaviors...
I hope to be able to breed them.

More than likely the female will always harass the male. Is it a previously mated pair? Or are they completely new to each other? If they are new, the female will bully the male quite intensely for a couple weeks and if he survives she will slack off a little but not completely. It's pretty normal in my experience, especially with clowns from the tomato complex.

I bought them as a mateed pair, and actually the female started to lighten up, and they are sharing the RBTA now. tongue.gif I even saw the male cleaning part of the wall!! Will have pics soon...
