Maroon clownfish questions

[EastCoastJon]

Im thinking of getting a maroon clownfish for my 10 gal tank (they'll be the only fish in there) I was wondering would they do better in a pair or a single for such a small tank also are they aggressive to inverts I do have a single cleaner shrimp and a sand sifting starfish rn thanks guys!

You cant keep maroons (single or pair) in a 10g. Their adult size is 6 inches, being one of the largest clowns species, not to mention the most aggressive. 10 is pushing it for regular clowns as it is, but if youre dead seat on clowns the regular ones would be your only option

Maroons minimum of 60 gallons I would say. Regular clownfish minimum of 15 gallons
