Black Ice Ocellaris Clownfish & Small Orange Percula Clowfish

[schubertchris29]

Wanted to know if (1) Black Ice Ocellaris Clownfish & (2) Small Orange Percula Clowfish would go alright together? The 2 small percs have seem to paired but are still very young as the black ice clown would be the same age as them. Everything else in the 30 Gallon tank would be 4 small snail's, scooter Benny that doesent harm nothing just scopes the sand, and 3 different anenomes such as condy anenome Haitian reef anenome and long purple tentacle anenome which all seem to be happy with each other, two of them sometimes 'snuggle' with each other it seems(the first two I listed). The clowns have yet to make any their host and adapt to them. But I hear that takes time. Everything here is all still young. 30-35 pounds of live rock. Marineland filter, heater, LED light all in the setup and cycle is completed. Nitrites, nitrates, ammonia, ph, salinity, calcium, phosphorus, kh, etc is all fine. Temperature is always between 78-82°. I haven't heard of anything with the 2 same percs and the different black ice clownfish having a problem with each other. Any recommendations or concerns would be greatly appreciated upon deciding on this next step. All being fed frozen baby brine and normal brine shrimp, myisis, cylopse, and other real food at their choice. Please let me know what you have to say!

Your water is too hot. Temp range for Ocellaris clowns is 72-78F

I'm pretty sure if you check live aquaria they recommend everything be kept at 72-78° or at least everything I've ever looked at on there. Most people seem to keep there tanks between 77-80.

82 is pushing it you just have to make sure everything is spot because from my understanding things become more sensitive at higher temps.

I keep mine at 80.5. No problems.
