Tomato clown

[novajoe]

Hi everyone,
So I have a tomato clown in a 45 gallon tank. I really think I want to have other fish now and I know I basically cant put anything else in the tank with him. I thought about getting a lawnmower blenny again cause those dudes sure are cute. But im sure it wont be good.
Any suggestions on what to do with him. I dont know if I wanna bring him to the pet store for a credit cause like what if he gets a bad owner.
Maybe could get some other things like an urchin. Any suggestions in that area?
I love the Mr. Marinara but gosh I want more life in the tank.

Have you tried other fish yet. Sometime single clowns aren't too bad. When they pair up and spawn is when the fun starts.
And your Mr is probably a Mrs if it's been kept singly. Clownfish turn female when kept alone.

We've all been in your position. If it's not a money-thing, bring it to the LFS and take your lumps ($). Maybe avoid Clowns if you want more variety in the future in your 45-gallon. Of course, you can always give another fish a whirl like @exnisstech says, and hope the Clown plays nice.

If you do try another fish, you could try to rearrange the rock work. Sometimes this will kind of "reset" the clown in terms of what it thinks is its territory.

Good luck!
