Ample Aquascape

[SharkBoy13713]

Hey everyone. I am pretty new to the hobby and have a 24 gallon 3 in 1 tank. This is my current rock setup. I have been dealing with a very angry female clown who is relentless when it comes to bullying her mate. I currently have her in a breeder box in the aquarium. I read online that the male should have spaces to hide from her. Is my current rock setup enough or do I need to make something different. Any and all advice welcome.

I think you have room for more rocks. You want your fish to be able to have plenty of places to hide.

This thread below should give you some ideas.

I agree with the above and it is common for clown aggression like you have in small tanks. Hopefully once the dominant one is full established the aggression will stop. Try putting a 8 inch mirror taped to the front of the tank as you add a few more rocks and hiding places. The mirror will confuse the aggressor

a few more rocks couldn't hurt.

Were the clowns bought at the same time, or are you trying to get them to bond?

Bought together.

More rocks to create caves and crevices they can hide in and swim through. You still have a bunch of room for that size of tank. I know there was this whole thing about the 1/3rd rule. I try to stick with more of a 1/2 rule. Half for swimming room and half for rocks and hiding.

Then I'd probably try and add a couple more rocks to the left, see if that helps with some hiding spots.
