Caesar Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 I would like to get a pair of clowns but I'm not sure which ones to get. Should I get True Percs, Black Percs or Maroon clowns Link to comment
Caesar Posted September 18, 2003 Author Share Posted September 18, 2003 Oh I forgot, I have a 20L tank with no other fish right now and spec are normal. Link to comment
drdrew Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 maroons will get too big...either of the others are fine Link to comment
alexmsw Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 will a false perc and a b/w perc get along if you buy them small and at the same time?? Link to comment
JLTRUK Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 my first response would be no. but it can be done, just not in such a small tank. mixing clowns is common, but in such a small tank it may not go over well. even as juvies I dont think it will work in the long run Link to comment
Caesar Posted September 19, 2003 Author Share Posted September 19, 2003 drdrew what if tank size was not an issue? are you saying that you perfer maroons? Link to comment
Crakeur Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 I always feel that if you are buying similar fish, buy ones that can pair off and mate. You might not get babies and if you do they probably won't survive unless you q em and take special care of them but it is still interesting to watch the mating behaviors. great, now I need to scrap my plans for fish and find me a pair of bangaiis Link to comment
drdrew Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 if tank size wasn't an issue.... hmmmm i don't know that i prefer maroons. i really like the way they look...but they are the most aggressive clownfish, so it would depend on many factors, including whatever else i wanted to keep... i really like the onyx true perc.....that seems like a cool fish.
