Mixing clowns

[abryant]

I have a singular female ocellaris clown in my 120gallon tank and I bought a bunch of this stuff from this guy including a pair of maroon clowns and I’m not sure if I should put them in the tank with the ocellaris I don’t want them to kill eachother or fight but I am not able to get my ocellaris out he’s to quick. So as of now I have the two maroons in an acclimation box at the top of the tank

Maroons are rather mean compared to most clowns, and any pair of clowns will naturally be territorial. This mix would not be wise.

Possible to get away with two pairs in a 120G but be ready for blood shed imo.

The Maroon pair will surely kill the Ocellaris. I would remove the Ocellaris if you add the pair of maroon clowns.

Will do but it’s kind of a monster how do you recommend I get him out he’s to smart like as soon as I put the net in he goes and hides

You either have to remove the rock or get a fish trap. If the fish have favorite food, or eating well, it can be trap (almost every time). Fish trap is a great thing to have.

Are your lights on at night? If so get it out in the open by feeding it and then cut the lights. You will have a few moments to scoop it up while it adjusts. You can also try the opposite. Turn the lights on in the middle of the night and scoop it up (if it doesn’t sleep where a net can’t go.
