Harem Tank

[Venzzla]

Has anyone else setup a clown fish harem tank? If so, was it successful? How many clowns? How big of a tank? All ocellaris clowns? How long has it been setup? I am a member of clown fish marketplace on FB and there is a guy that has about 15- clowns in a 30 gallon reef, it sure it beautiful!

This one is my favorite:


I have a BTA tank, but I already had an established pair of clowns in it so I've been nervous to add more...

15 fish in a 30 gallon doesn't seem like that'd go super well long term..

the smallest clown harem/nem tank i've come across is melev's reef that has 15~ clowns in a 60 cube, but it's tied into his massive overall system

That tank update was at the two year mark. If you watch the video, there are some clowns that aren’t growing...could be due to aggression/size restraints.

I saw a video by them and I believe it was at the 4 year mark and they were ready to tear it down and do something else. I was just wondering if others had tried this. I guess the key is kept them well feed and provide plenty of anemone's. Even then I guess its iffy, but it sure is beautiful seeing all the clowns!
