clown fish

I’m relatively new to marine aquarium keeping I’ve had freshwater in my household my entire life growing up but this is my first salt tank and my first to keep by myself. I had been given an “established” tank from my neighbor who had to move and couldn’t keep the tank. After doing weeks and...

Cool pair

I have a Biocube 29 that has been running great for 3+ years. I have an ocellaris clown that is 5+ years old. I just gained more live rock and coral from a buddy who just broke down his tank. (I fully understand the issues of taking on someone else’s reef problems without quarantine) That...

Good evening all and hope everyone is doing well! I just paired a wonderful clownish couple and was thinking my next step to get a anemone for them? I have a great local fish store that I will buy from and was wondering if you have any good tips for the pair and anemone top thrive? I have a...

I've had this clown fish about a month and a half hes looked a bit rough since I got him but he seems to be eating and swimming fine and not scratching on rocks or anything. He just looks strange should I be worried or what should I do to help him out?

Hey everyone so today while feeding my fish I noticed my male clown has two white patches near his head and I need help identifying what it is. I don’t think it’s ich since there’s no specs on him and I’ve never seen anything that looks like it. He’s Tank mates are another clown, clean up crew...

It’s currently 6:00 AM, and my orange storm clownfish, keo has jumped out of the tank 4 times the past week, twice this morning with 5 jump attempts this past hour. What could be causing this? He’s been in the tank for almost a month and has never done this before. I haven’t done a water change...

Hey guys just after some advice. I’m worried my clown fish are struggling with the water flow around my tank. I’ll post of photo of the layout but it’s a 2ft tank so roughly 20g/80 something lites. I have a Tidal 55 which is rated to 1000Lph, and a Sicce 2000 which is 2000 Lph. Which equals...

Ive got two little clams in my tank and over night one of the clams appears to have opened up so wide it split in two. My second clam looks just like it did yesterday but im now worried that he may be next for what effected the first. Had both clams for about 3 months now, they're my first clams...

I have been dealing with my tank overall being “off“ for the last week and have now noticed the marks pictured below on my clownfish. Overall multiple corals in the tank have been upset but that is for another post, battling cyano. I first noticed the marks yesterday and will continue to monitor...

I had a large female ocellaris clownfish by herself for about a month and added a much smaller ocellaris clownfish about 5 months ago. Back when the larger female had a "bonded" male (before he passed away), they would be next to each other all the time. While the female did not kill the new...

Hello Everyone, I’ma little bit over 6 months into this wonderful Journey. I have taken things slowly and being patient which isn’t my strong suit lol. Just have a 29g standard tank with two beautiful clownfish. A small Maroon clown and slightly bigger ocellaris clown. I know I know, there...

Hey everyone I just noticed on one of my clowns has a weird white pimple/ lifted dot on the side of him. I’m not sure if it’s ich or some sort of other parasite or illness. Does anyone know what this could be?

Just thought I’d share this video of my new 20G High aquarium. Going to be picking up some live rock with some mushrooms and green star polyps from a fellow hobbyist. Can’t wait until it’s all aquascaped! My clown doesn’t know what to do with all that swim space!

Hello everyone! It’s been a long time coming but the day is finally here! After a hot water heater failed we were forced to temporarily tear down my tank and leave it in an “essentials only” setup while we repaired the basement What better time to upgrade to a bigger tank!!! I’ve been about...

i recently had one of my two clown fish die. I have been delaying on getting another. I would like to get at least one regular ocellaris clown and I would like to get two black and white ocellaris. Do you think they would be aggressive toward each other? And is it ok to just get one regular...

Hi everyone, I'm upgrading my 6 year old 30g to a 125g FOWLR, and I'm hoping to add some new friends to my current stock. I've been doing a ton of research but I've been finding a lot of conflicting information, so I thought I'd see if anyone has ideas for new fish. My current fish/inverts...

So I have a 45 gallon reef aquarium. My water parameters are all good with low nitrates and phos. Anyway I have had a bonded pair of clownfish for the past 5 months. One is a large 2” female Perculia Clownfish and the other is a smaller 1.5” occilaris clownfish (excuse my spelling). They have...

When I get home from work at night my clownfish goes nuts. I usually feed during the day and he gets fed plenty. He seems like he is all over the place and bumping into the glass but he may just be precisely swimming to each side. This seems a little erratic. Thoughts?

These guys seem to be changing colour, but its dark and patchy . What you think? Tia Apologies for the bad pics

I've had her for 2 years, perfectly healthy and eats pellet and flakes. Already caught and ready to go. When it's feeding time she runs up to the top to greet you. Almost 3" for this one, same clownfish just 3 different pictures Slowly shutting down my second tank. $20 obo or open to trades for...
