I just picked up a single picasso today from a local reefer friend. The mate had died so I got this one for $65. I put it in the tank today and it went straight to the ORA stumpy clowns and they are all swimming together. I will be adding to more picassos come Tuesday.

Uber excited!

how many Picasso's can you have in one tank? I'm setting up a 28g nano just for them and I don't really plan on breeding... just want to have a nice group of them... :)

I wonder if they'll host a Tyree neon green toadstool? if not, I wanna get a yellow or blue carpet anemone... :)

but I need to figure out what these new guys want to eat first before going any further with this new obsession... LoLz...

I have a 14" tall tyree toad that is Huge and my clowns don't even look at it. I was always hoping they would host it.

I got a line on a few pairs....hopefully the will go through all the ones I have found are dependent on part outs so I have to wait and see.

I do have someone offering B grade Picasso's but I'm gonna wait out for the A grades.

2 is the most you'll be able to handle, you can start off with 3 but 2 will pair up and attack and either cause severe damage to the other clown or it will die depending on how fast you notice it being attacked.

I have seen 4 in one tank...

I am going to put 3 together and see which ones pair up then remove the other to a new tank. :)

I am still looking for a 4th...

ecotoxlady · Jul 26, 2008

revhtree · Jul 26, 2008

My new picasso swims up to me like we were best friends already. Its swimming with the other clowns and eating like mad! :)

oceanparadise1 · Jul 26, 2008

Eklikewhoa · Jul 26, 2008

revhtree · Jul 26, 2008

MarvinsReef · Jul 26, 2008

very nice Rev... looks like you have the HI islands on one side of your new Picasso's.. ;)

maroonytunes · Jul 26, 2008

Yes extremely nice pair rev, the picassos have always been eye-catching to me because every fish had different amounts of white color and striping, would love to see more pictures everyone.

oceanparadise1 · Jul 26, 2008

Wow nice fish rev!

MarvinsReef · Jul 27, 2008
