Black occ and Perc?

[disciple]

I have a black occ (female) and Perc (male) together in my 120 dt. Both have lossed their mates So far they have been in the tank together for 2 months. The black occ has been there for 4 years and I introduced the male to the tank. So far they are getting along but you can tell that the female is the boss. Go figure Will these clowns eventually pair up? Or just live in peace.

Its possible for them to pair, and mate, ie Sanjays Black Photons.

It is certainly possible.. and depending on your tank dimensions, rockwork and anemone situation, they likely will either pair up or fight till death.

keep us posted

I have an oceanic tech 120 gallon tank 4'x2'x2'. The only thing in the tank right now is a 6line wrasse and CUC with live rock. Should I wait to see if they pair up before introducing an anemone? I would think that this would put a stop to any chances of paring up as this may make a clown more territorial.
