2 different pairs of clownfish

[justisathomesea]

I was thinking about adding to different types of clowns in my tank but wasnt sure if there would be a problem with them fighting. I wanted to add two black and white clown to try and pair and also two ocellaris clowns to try and pair, but I was wondering if that would be possible or would it just cause problem between them since I know they fight to determine domiance. Is this possible in a 55gal tank or only in a larger tank?

It would result in 1 pair of fish over time.There was a guy here that had done this in a 55,phender is his screen name.He had done this with a pair of Onyx and a pair of Orange Skunks if I remember right.

I have seen some tanks that have some clowns in pairs but they where introduce at the same time and if there are different they might fight. I will think if you have a big tank 200g or more you have the space but 55g i think is too small.

i've read of many successes between pink skunks and occelaris or percs in tanks as small as 2ft.

thank you for everyones comments, I thought the tank might be to small to try I didnt want to buy to different types just for them to die for no reason
