lizbeth Posted February 17, 2003 Share Posted February 17, 2003 I would suggest you buy "Clownfishes" by Joyce Wilkerson. It's an excellent information source for keeping clownfish. No you can't keep a maroon with percs. Maroons are very big, agressive, and territoral. As to what you can keep with the percs...you've got quite a while to research and decide. Link to comment
Temecula Reefer Posted February 17, 2003 Share Posted February 17, 2003 I have that same tank and I agree with lizbeth... the maroon will get big for that tank and from what I have read, don't put it in with another clown... I have a mated pair of percs and would recommend getting something that stays down in the rocks or toward the bottom with the clowns... I am thinking about getting a yellow watchman or something along that line.... good luck with your tank and post some pics when it is set up! Link to comment
artie Posted February 17, 2003 Author Share Posted February 17, 2003 how u like the 18gvia aqua tank and what kinda filter protien skimmer u using on it Link to comment
Temecula Reefer Posted February 17, 2003 Share Posted February 17, 2003 My via aqua is great! .... I have a Prizm Deluxe on my sump and it is working good now, the first few weeks I had alot of bubbles going back in the tank, but everything is dialed in! The lighting that comes with the tank seems to pretty good also, atleast for the corals I want... Link to comment
freakaccident Posted February 18, 2003 Share Posted February 18, 2003 Consider the clarkii clowns too. I have one large one I bought at premium aquatics last Saturday. He is full of personality. I have a yellow tang that I adpoted and have yet to give away in my tank with him. They swim around like a mated pair. Its quite amusing. Link to comment
