veiledfox Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 I decided to try pairing a true percula and a black saddleback ocellaris. I introduced them to the tank at the same time and made sure to have a plan in place to separate them if things went wrong. They've only been together for a week now, but I haven't seen any signs of aggression or bullying. Last night they slept in their anemone together. It's too cute! 1 Quote Link to comment
Tamberav Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 Do you have any rock in the tank? Just wondering as I am just seeing fake decoration which is fine but make sure you have rock too. Anyways, cute clowns. It may take a long time to really know if they will truly pair. Juvi clowns will tolerate each other much better than larger adults and its possible as the saddleback grows into an adult and becomes more aggressive, it may beat up on its smaller buddy too much. Sometimes saddlebacks can even be too rough on other saddlebacks. Will take time to know. Good luck! 1 Quote Link to comment

The fake plant in the background is for my seahorses 🙂 Thank you for the advice! I will continue to proceed with caution. 2 Quote Link to comment

Seahorses are not supposed to be kept with stinging animals. 😞 A nem is such a huge danger.

Thank you for the resources! 2 Quote Link to comment
