RIP Maldives Clowns sad week!

Azurel · Dec 21, 2007

Well I had a poll about my pair of clowns that turn up sick....While treating them they ended up dying. So the fish that I spent 3 years looking for I only had the chance to enjoy for almost 2 years. Sad week for me as they were my favorite fish I have had muchless being clownfish and we all know how cool they are.....RIP little buddies.

I guess I will go a differant direction then I have over the past 23 years with this tank and the fish I have kept. I have only kept Maroon and Maldives clowns over the last 23 years....I found at a LFS a really sweet pair of Jet black percs....I might have to fork out the cash for those.....I have never really kept percs before other then the very first year I had a marine tank.....

Any pictures?

I've got a pair of clownfish that I believe are True Perculas. I thought they were False Percs, but now I'm starting to think they might be True since they haven't grown all that much in the past year. They've gotten plenty fat, but they haven't grown longer.

I had pics on an old hard drive that crashed.....Quite disappointing they came in really healthy and have been up until the last week.

So sorry to hear about your loss. Good luck with the new ones if you decide to get them.

Sorry to hear that James. Good luck with whatever you decide to get.

Thanks all......They were ones I wanted to have for years you know what I mean.....I got a firefish and might add 2 more as I read that they do better in odds. I always wanted them but never had any luck as the clowns or either type seemed to really spook them. And of course they would jump out the dang tank and dry up......This one is doing really good and even get close to my hand when it in there....

P.S. Jesse I haven't forgot about you and the frags......Plus the bet we had just waiting for this special polyp to grow so I can get you some.....
