    Picky clown hosting remedy

    I have a saddleback anemone fish that thinks he owns all three anemones. So my clowns decided to host the wave maker. I bought a beta rock that has 2 holes and suctions to the side of the tank. I put an anemone in it. The clowns took to it right away.

    Sick Clownfish and Flashing Royal Gramma

    Please help! Around 3 weeks ago we noticed our Royal Gramma was flashing intermittently, but no other behavioural changes. She was sometimes doing the yawning motion, but mostly around dinner time so thought it was territorial. Then 2 weeks ago I noticed small white spots on my black juvenile...

    New pair of clowns for my tank

    Figured this was as good a place to post this as my tank build in the Nano section. LFS said they were juvenile Gold Lightning Maroons, but I'm 99.9% sure they're Gold Nuggets! Either way they're absolutely gorgeous and I've never seen them in person before. They are the only fish in this tank...

    Three year old female clownfish - Large white bump on eye

    Female clownfish has a large white bump on her eye, must have happened some time today or yesterday. Otherwise seems healthy, nothing introduced to the tank in years. Does it look like physical trauma, bacterial infection or a parasite?

    I have a clownfish pair, and the male has the skin on only the left side of his body peeling. It is near his tail at the end of his body, and white. He behaves normally and still has a normal appetite, what could this be and how do I treat? There’s no other fish apart from the 2 clowns and no...

    Divorce?!

    Hello I’m sorry to say the romance is gone. I have a pair of Maroon Clown fish and they have been enjoying wedded bliss for 2 years. Unfortunately now the female has started nipping the males fins and tail and he has been kicked out of her territory. Is there anything I can do? Or is he going...

    EMERGENCY Clownfish in Rough Shape

    Last night I noticed one of my clowns a little more pale than usual, but it was still eating and swimming more or less okay, so I decided to check on it again in the morning. Today it looks worse and it's not swimming around as much, fins look beat up. I had been out of town for a few days so I...

    Why do we insist on saying it backwards?

    Anemones host Clowns. It's not the other way around. That's how conventional English works. Why do we, as a community, insist it's the other way around? This has aggrivated me for years, and yes, I made an account exclusively to ask this question. Why do we insist on being so very wrong?

    Anemone how to care for?

    I just got an anemone. 125 gallon tank my question is will they be ok with glass lids as long as light source is strong enough to go through? Or would mesh be better?

    Did my tiger pistol shrimp kill clown fish(s)?

    I had two clown fish juveniles. The smaller one started hanging our the Watchman Goby and Tiger Pistol Shrimps home, it would get really curious about the Goby and hang right outside of the caves entrance. I heard a few clicks from the Pistol Shrimp when it would hangout near it. One day i come...

    EMERGENCY Clownfish Laying on Side, Breathing Heavy, Won’t Eat

    I got this guy from Petco on Sunday. He was laying on the sand bed in their tanks so I knew he had some type of issue, but I had assumed it was an ammonia/high nitrate thing bc the whole saltwater section there had more algae than usual and red cyano all over. So, assuming it was a...

    Pairing up a lone juvenile clownfish

    Hello, I am new to the hobby and I purchased my first clownfish a week ago. He is definitely a juevenile. I wanted to make sure my tank was healthy enough to support fish and inverts before adding too much livestock. All the tests were showing my cycle was complete and he and the 4 inverts have...
