black storm clownfish

[Camaro Show Corals]

So I think these are the clownfish I want to add to my modded biocube 29, any special care for them? also should I add a anemone too and what kind? Right now all i have is a longnose hawkfish and I love him. Also how does this stock sound

I don't believe they require any different care then to a regular clown fish. They're essentially the same thing, just different color morph. An anemone isn't required for clowns, alot of times reefers will add an anemone thinking the clowns will love it, and they never look at it lol. Bubble tip anemone seems to be the most common for clownfish hosting. How long has the tank been up and running? Generally you want a fully matured tank before adding an anemone.

Perhaps a smaller 2 spot blenny instead of the lawnmower. Smaller than the lawnmower and still eats algae.

The tank has been running for 3 years but I just bought it 3 weeks ago up and running the tank has a hydro galaxy 165w led light and a EcoTech mp10 powerhead and a Santa Monica algae scrubber

I also have a rock flower anemone

Thats a lot of fish for a biocube. I’d stick with the two clowns and one smaller fish.

 

[Camaro Show Corals]

I don’t think it’s a lot of fish if you look at other peoples biocube 29s and on YouTube

 

[Camaro Show Corals]

Most people have 4-6 fish I am doing weekly 5 gallon water changes also using Red Sea coral pro salt

 

[Camaro Show Corals]

Maybe I’ll scratch out any firefish or cardinals but I think the tank can handle the rest, how are tail spot blennys instead of lawnmowers?

 

[TvanB1]

Just because ‘most’ people do it that way doesn’t mean its the right way.
I wouldn’t do any more than 3 fish in a tank that size.

Where are you buying the Storms from if you don't mind saying?

 

[Camaro Show Corals]

Okay so 2 clowns and the long nose hawkfish id like a sand shifting goby but I’ll see how 3 fish go

Have you picked out a pair yet?

 

[Camaro Show Corals]

I have not

 

[Camaro Show Corals]

Why you got your eye on a pair?? Haha

 

[gfox]

Thinking about it right now.If i do i might need to get rid of the fish i have until the clowns grew up some.

 

[Camaro Show Corals]

Yeah I really want a pair I’d also love to have Miami whites they are only bred by one guy in Florida so super hard to get and even more rare

wait 6 months and I bet you will start to see a drop in the price.i think like most new designer clowns once the fad wears off and more people breed them they will become more affordable.jmo
