So I was in the LFS last week and was looking for something new to add to my 125 that’s been up and running for about 2 months now. I have a pair of Clarki clowns in it already. Decent sized ones.
Long story short one of the employees recommended a fish to me. Called it a domino damsel(which I knew very little about, but swore that clowns were a type of damsel). He told me that they would be fine and he had them in his tank, so trusting in the knowledge he has I walked out the door with 3 of them.
Upon further reading during the week I have come to find out this is a bad recommendation and a horrible choice for my tank? I was looking to do a mostly predator tank to begin with, which is why I chose the larger Clarki clowns. Is this tank death having them in or will I be okay? They are all small 2-2.5 inches each. I’ll pull them out and take them back or just buy something that eats them if I can’t catch them, but I need advice.
