clown fish

This clownfish was so beautiful that i just had to buy it (LFS only had 1, else i would have bought a pair). but i'm not really sure what type of clown it is. I think it's an Amphiprion clarkii or an Amphiprion chrysopterus, but i'm not really sure on either of them. When i search on the...

Hello, I’ve had my clown fish for about 3 days and one had gone dull

Any recommendations for ordering designer clowns in America?

Hello, I was finally able to record my dominate clownfish shaking against the sand bed. I’ve had her for two months and the only other fish is an other clown I had for 3 weeks. I’m pretty sure she started this behavior 5 days ago because I was able to notice the sand bed looking different. She...

Hey, new to the hobby here, tanks about 3 months old, I have a pair of clowns, the female has been pretty aggressive with the male, nipping his fins and such so I separated him in a little isolation box so he could relax for a few days, as I do not have a separate tank, but now the spots I...

Impulsively went to my LFS and immediately knew I needed to start my very own reef tank. I’ve had a betta before, but that was nothing compared to this. Currently I’m a month and a half in with no issues once so ever. I wanted to do something with puffer fish, eels, and sea horses but some...
