Adding clowns ????

[mgsr]

I currently have one clown (nemo) kind was just wondering if I could add 1more like him and two different clowns. Or would I be asking for trouble. I have a 75 gallon tank

Hit or miss. If your clown was tank raised you have better chances. Most Ocellaris are tank raised captive bred. They are usually social. But they can be very territorial. Especially if they are wild caught. Do you have anemones or other soft corals that they would host? What other type of clown are you thinking about? A 75 will have enough room for a couple different species. But they really need to be captive bred or the will fight.

Can't remember the name of the other two they are almost all white but face and fins orange

They should get along in your tank as they are all captive bred. But you never know with clowns.

Yes! I have a similar situation I have a black ice and I'm not sure if I can add an orange naked clown

That pic looks really close

 

[mgsr]

Well hope you get your answer here to let me know how you decide

if they make babies i want them. good luck. Introduce them slowly in a cup or breeder box to see how they react to each other.

 

[mgsr]

Very good idea with breaded box

 

[mgsr]

If they have babies I will make sure you get a couple

 

[mgsr]

About the breader box should I put all 4 in together or 2 in and 2 out

Just the new ones in! Otherwise you would have a blood bath!

I have a pair of Wyoming white clowns that are paired and stay on 1 side of my tank at all times. I introduced a pair of Nearly Naked clowns and they wanted to be friends with the Whites but the whites were not having it. Especially the male, he was super protective of the female and would chase them all over if they even came close to their side of tank. After a week they gave up and let the naked come over whenever they want to. After a few nights of friendly sleeping together the naked went to the other side of tank and now host that side. So i have 2 sets of clowns that fought at first, then had no issue and now house both sides of my tank.
