Hi,
I'm trying to gather some information on maroon clownfish. (I have limited interest in them, not really keen on their ability to draw blood with their bites haha)
My LFS had a pair surrendered there, and the owner really likes them. She really wants to keep them for a display tank, but this is one of the first times they've had maroons in the store because they are just too aggressive in their experience to keep in the designated clownfish tanks. I'm asking around for any info on them, especially regarding their aggression towards other fish.
This pair is about 3 to 4 years old, and seems like they are stunted for their age, at only about 1 1/2 inches at max. Apparently they've been kept with other maroons for a while, and they are some of the only survivors out of a group of seven.
They're acting super placid and calm with the other fish in the store's tank, which they've been living with for a couple weeks. (Naoko Fairy Wrasse, Chrysus wrasse, various Gobies, Hawkfish, Fang and Bicolour Blenny.)
I was wondering whether anyone knew any care or information about maroons, and if they'd be crazy aggressive once settled?
Thanks
