I got a second clown that is almost the same size as mine from a local tank breakdown. The last two times I tried to pair mine it ended badly for the new comer. Luckily I got the last one out before it was too late. This one bickered with mine for about 20 mins. Then they started getting along better. My original has never shown interrest in my btas :-( seemed to prefer my frogspawns. After a few weeks, not only are they paired and inseperable but tthey are finally hosting my rbtas!! :-D:-D there are two nems as it recently split. They seem to prefer the bigger of the two. But the two nems and two clowns are one happy fam now! Siked!!!!!:-D:-D

Today's update is about my Grandis pally. I bought one of these very early in my tanks live. Placed it on a piece of rock in the front of the tank. It was growing quite well, even grew a baby one beside it. I had placed some pink and gold Pallys on the opposite side of that particular rock. Overtime these pallys grew out very fast. As they cluttered around the Grandis, it started to tuck away. At first I did not realize that it was because of the pink and gold. I thought that Pallys should be fine together even if they're different types like zoas. After they shrunk so far you could not even see them anymore I decided to try cutting the pink and gold pallys back. I cleared about a one inch space around the grandis.For two or three brief days the grandis started opening slightly. But then closed right back up. As the pink and gold started to close in again I decided that I really did not want to lose the grandis So I clipped their piece of rock right off of the main rock. After about a week they started to open again. Very small. The one I started with was an inch plus at one time. Now both were the size of zoas. Aftee about a 45 days this us them. the two I had are now about half an inch. And there is a very very small baby coming in beside. :-D I cannot believe the pink and gold hurt them that much just by being near them. But that definitely seems to be the case. I don't have a picture of my original one handy there on my computer. But here they are now
