I was wanting to get a mixed clownfish tank out of my 180. Pair of Ocellaris, pair of Black and White Ocellaris & pair of Wyomings. Never did it because of the tale of the tales.

I saw a small display like this at a public aquarium, must have been 50 clown in a fairly small tank, it might have been 50g. There were literally a swarm, all in one anemone. I don't think any were larger than 1.5". It was awesome.

you know. I also wondered about those tanks at the aquariums at the zoos and other attractions. but even for the public aquarium, I think the 50g tank with 50 clowns is even too much. maybe a local breeder donated them.

I'd do it if I was into clowns that much..... I have a pair of occy's been paired for over a year, happy, host my magfloat and nothing else..... added a 10yr old cinnamon clown and have had 0 issues (was given to me from my lfs after a newb who's water was beyond sketchy brought it in). I've had the cinnamon now for about 5-6 months.

Also i had a friend who added a juvi occy after he had an established pair of occy's and did fine for over 2 yrs before he left the hobby.
