clownfish

Im thinking of getting a maroon clownfish for my 10 gal tank (they'll be the only fish in there) I was wondering would they do better in a pair or a single for such a small tank also are they aggressive to inverts I do have a single cleaner shrimp and a sand sifting starfish rn thanks guys!

Pretty sure my clowns have brook. Any success with hyposalinity? How did you do it. Thanks.

Do baby bictinctus look different from adults significantly in terms of color? My LFS brought some in from proaquatix at my request but… they appear to have white bands at the base of their tails like a Clarkii. Not very yellow tails either. I feel bad since the owner brought them in for me… but...

Is this breathing rate normal for clownfish? Seems fast. Everything else seems fine. But this is the first time they haven't eaten their food so I'm a little concerned.

Hi all, This is my first saltwater tank and proper jump into the aquarium hobby. The tank is a 20 gallon cube that’s been cycled for 3 weeks. I added the 2 clowns yesterday and they’ve pretty much hung around the top of the tank all day and night. Just wanted to see if this was normal or smthng...

Hi all! First, I’ll precise that my pair hasn’t started spawning but I’m starting to consider potentially trying to raise Clownfish fry in the future. I have a regular male Ocellaris and an Ice storm female that have successfully paired up and ever since I’ve been wondering about outcomes of...

I've been frantically going through this forum to try and save my moribund clownfish but had no luck unfortunately. My clownfish has died and I have no clue why after extensive testing. Tank is about 2 and a half months old or so. I've had my clowns for a little over a month. Currently...

For three weeks now my male clownfish has been on his own after his mate died from a gill injury and I’ve finally found a new girl for him today. He’s about 1.5 inches long and a regular ocellaris, the female I got is about 2 inches long and an ice storm. She’s currently in a mesh isolation box...

I have 2 clownfish in a tank, they’re a mated pair the male has his mouth open and white around it and there is now a spot on his side. At first I thought they were fighting and I’m still not sure if it is that or something else? I am getting a bigger tank set up for them now to hopefully...

Other side doesn’t have triangle under eye! has anyone else seen another or is this rare?

I’ve had this trap for a while and my clownfish are on their 8th batch now and I can only manage to get 5 fry each time while I see hundreds of eggs I only have clowns in my tank and a royal gramma I place the trap on the opposite side of the eggs and the eggs are on a rock

Hey, I had a clownfish die yesterday and had it ID and most said that most likely the other one killed it but now the second one has marks and spots. Is it maybe ich? Treatments?

I have a proven breeding pair of clowns that are showing breeding behavior already after only being with me 2 weeks i want an anenome but my friend sais it would distract the breeding process and cause incosistent breeding is this true has anyone kept anenomes in a clown breeding tank and had...

My poor clownfish have been in QT for 5 months (last time I get any livestock from Petco!) Had them in QT for 30 days and they had white spots so I treated them in Copper - then I found out it wasn’t ick but Flukes so they did 3 weeks of Prazipro and I didn’t see any flukes after the last...

Hello from Ohio! I'm setting up a new 24g Nano after being out of the hobby for a few years. The photo below was my favorite clownfish, Bob II. I enjoyed Bob's company for several years until the tragedy of a power outage that took out my tank. Kinda knocked the joy out and it's taken me...

Hello, I am pretty new to saltwater and still learning a couple things here and there about saltwater. I got this anemone at my LFS yesterday along with 2 clowns to accompany it and I chose the anemone as a clown seemed like it was already with it and the clown was on top of this anemone. The...

Hi fellow reefers, I have a GoldXLighting Maroon Clownfish in my display tank that I have had now for 4 years (4.5 inch) and decided to try and pair with a young male of the same kind. My young male (1.5 inch) has recently completed quarantine and is in an observation tank. To best increase my...

Hello all! Long time lurker, first time poster. I'm having a sad emergency with my tank. On Sunday night my fish were all swimming around and looked fine. Monday evening noticed my gramma wasn't eating at feeding time, but she was still swimming around the tank a bit showing no signs of...

I'm quiet concerned about my clownfish. This morning it ate normally and now it's not eating tonight when I took a closer look at it noticed some off pinkish white colors on the scales. Its behavior has been relatively normal, maybe a little less energetic like usual, but the white dots do...

Can I use a long air stone for beneficial bacteria I’ll leave it off and have another air stone going but I’ll use the air stone for bacteria since it has many small pores so that my rotifers or clownfish fry can’t get stuck in i haven’t seen any discussions on this and just wanted to see if it...

Unsure if it's ich? I placed him in qt and dosed rally reef pro while I get help from you guys. Thank you.

Noticed these dots on my clownfish today. They aren't very apparent in the white light but are very noticeable in the blue light. It's a 16 gallon reef tank. The tank is rather new. I've only had it for a couple months and I added the fish roughly a month ago, after the tank was fully cycled...
