Anyone have a white and yellow stripe maroon pair?

Will these fish pair up ok??

I was thinking of getting two very small of each and trying them in a 120gal tank.

They should pair up. The white bars are a little bit more agressive then the golds are but it is really hard to tell. Just follow some of the guidelines about pairing maroon clowns up. There is a thread on it at the beginning of this forum.

If they breed you might have some people up in arms about "crossbreeding" and "hybridization is the devil!"

For what it's worth, I wish you best of luck!

I don't plan on breeding...
I just one of each.
I saw a pair in a guys tank and I liked it.

Not sure if they were an actual pair, they were both hosting something different.. but they were ok in the same tank.

Either way, good luck with it! They're very cool animals!

They're the same species, just from different locations. So no worries.

There is nothing wrong with hydridization. It happens in nature all the time and sometimes it produces some really wonderful fish. I've read of several instances where clownfish even produce viable hydrids. Really cool!
