clown fish

Hello everyone, I have a 29 gallon biocube reef tank that is in search of a new fish. My fairy wrasse I had for 7 years unfortunately passed over the weekend :(. I’ve always wanted a designer clown and due to me being at school I can not have another tank. I have a maroon clown already that...

I have my system set up, and ready for 4 pairs, but my question is Where did you find your mated pair? Were they mature enough for breeding when you bought it? ......... In case I want to buy 2 clownfish, and force them into pair How long does it take? What size should I get? Can you share...

Hi all I'm aware that clownfish are weird creatures, but this is concerning me a little. I have this pair of Ocellaris for over a year, they were always goofy but never agressive to one another or any tankmate. Since this morning both of them are swimming histerically against the glass...

I have been in the hobby for more than a year, decide to upgrade my 20 rimless to 65G tank. DIY tank stand + sum 20L from petco Add on some triming I did not want to drill hole on my ceiling or wall because it would be set in a new house, so I found on rack which look something like this...

So I recently lost the male of my clownfish pair. I had a 1 1/2 to 2 year old perc and a 1 year old Ocellaris. My smaller ocellareris jumped into the back chamber of my biocube 29 and didn't make it. I have since learned from my mistake and made a fish guard protecting my other fish from the...

came home noticed my clown has these weird black brownish dots all over his orange spots any idea what’s going on he’s very active and eating

Hey guys, wanna ask your opinion. One of my clownfish has been having some issues, he wasn’t eating and started to loose the black color on its fins, and I think he might have a white slime coat. I think it might have Brooklynella. I treat the main display with PraziPro a few days ago and he...

Hello fellow Reefers! it’s kenny again, and i have another question for you. i finally got my 125 gallon tank up and running again, so i can move my fish out of the 55 predator and into the reef once more. HOWEVER. i have a bonded pair of lightning maroon clowns and they are aggressive to my...

Hello, I'm currently working 50-60hr weeks, with 10-20hrs OT, so my Ocellaris may have had it for a longer period of time. Last night I noticed they were sliming (I have 2) especially at the fins - after googling a bit i diagnosed it as Brooklynella. I started filling a bucket with fresh water...

Introduction Over this build thread I am going to embark on my first ever Saltwater Fish Tank. To be perfectly honest I have never had a successful fish tank; growing up probably like most kids wanted a fish tank and then I simply got bored days later. That being said I really hope it isn’t a...

So i started my first saltwater aquarium in July. I have debated on doing this but hey why not. R2R has helped me a lot in the short time and maybe doing this will help others and maybe me too! So i have a biocube 16g. Nothing to special. I have always loved tropical fish and now that I’ve got...

My BTA split into three about 6 weeks ago. I've been waiting for them to fully heal before I try to remove them from the rockwork but today I noticed one was going for a walkabout. And the race began. I was trying to loosen the foot and remove the anemone from the rock. Lucy III was trying...

Hello, I recently purchased 2 clownfish from my LFS that they received from ORA. I bought the fish while still in the packages directly from ORA. So the fish were never in the LFS water. I brought the fish home and put them in a QT. They are not in my main display yet. My question is, has...

Hi everybody, I have a Tailspot blenny in my 29gal biocube with a Clarkii CF, Lemon peel Angel, and a newly added Flame Hawkfish. Before I added the hawkfish, everyone in the tank was fine and very visible. Ever since the addition of the hawkfish, I have not seen the blenny out in the open and...

About a year ago I purchased a couple of clowns from vivid aquariums online. One died and the other lived for about a month before dying. I quarantined both but did not have any medication on hand when their conditions took a turn. Now, I’m thinking of finally purchasing another couple black and...

So.... Anenomes are awesome right? The only appropriate answer to that is certainly YES - (when they’re behaving). Clown fish have awesome personalities? Again, absolutely! As often as the anenome is the source of issues, this time it is with a cute little pair of clownfish that I’ve have for...

Hello, tried searching for discussion about this but was unable to find much. I recently introduced a blue green chromis into my biocube 29. I have a firefish, perc and ocellaris as well in the tank. Everything was great for the first few weeks, but the past 2-3 weeks our chromis has been...

After a spontaneous purchase with my girlfriend who asked, "Can we get Nemos?" I was thrown head first into the hobby. I had a few freshwater tanks growing up (I also could not keep anything alive for too long), but never saltwater. I have recently added some new live rock and a coral-cabable...

I have looked at several pictures online, but I am having trouble identifying what this could be... can anyone help?

While attending a frag swap at a local coral farm I took $10 from my wallet and bought a few raffle tickets for a pair of Maroon lightening clowns. Don't know why other than why not and I love the look of them. I didn't even consider what I would do if I won the raffle. Well, you guessed it...

Don't they look like puppies?! Sooo adorable. LOL Hopefully they thrive in my tank. I've never got so stoked on a fish like these,... well other than when my CBB started eating like a pig, and when my mandarin started eating pellets. LOL

I have a 30 gallon aquarium and have had 2 clowns and a cleaner shrimp (along with some corals) for about a year. Last week we decided to add an anemone to the tank, and it seems to be doing alright overall (one of the clowns has even shown pretty consistent interest in the nem). My issue is...
