Adding percula pair

[brent.cherie]

I recently acquired bonded percula pair w/ anemone. Already have 1 percula that's twice the size in my DT. Can I add the pair or will that cause issues?

How big is the dt?
Most likely the pair will fight off the existing female it it comes near the nest/nem of the 2 new clowns. The Smaller The tank, The Bigger The Problem

It is a 180 gallon tank so should be fine, right?

Does the big clown have something to host already? Anyway I would say yes ;-)

 

[brent.cherie]

Yes he has a huge rbta. But while we're on the subject of the big clown, it seems like my 3 stripe damsel is annoying the clown and nem like the damsel wants to host the nem. Is that common?

 

[ngvu1]

Yes damsel can host nems too. Kick them out and make sure the clowns are settled in first. ;-)

I would be more than happy to evict him and put him on the free section on Craigslist but that probably going to take a while

Catch him first. Lol

 

[ngvu1]

use a fish trap :-) I was told they are hard to catch.....I have not had a damsel for a long time.....

Well I no longer have any concerns since I have rehomed the pair. Thanks for all the advice.
