65 Gallon Tank

[Isaac_Tang]

Hey guys,

I recently purchased a tank that’s 65 gal, I’m cycling the tank currently it’s been a week and looking good, eventually I want to add clownfish but I was wondering if I could add 3 clownfish, they’re going to be put in together at the same time but I wanted to make sure there wouldn’t be any problems in the future for them, any advise?

From what I've read, two may pair and kill the third. I'd stick with two and avoid the unnecessary battle royale.

It’s risky. My clown, I suppose a female, has already killed two clowns. You really need to make sure you get a small one and a bigger one, or else it will be nasty.

I agree that three is not usually a good idea. I would add two small ones who would both be male. As they age normally they will pair and one become female. If you have three then likely one becomes female and pairs with a male... and they bully the other male.
