Breeding between Amphiprion

[Doronxl7]

Hey guys,
I've got my new tank and got some questions.
(started with 18 gallon, and upgrade to 46 gallon)
So, at the end of the cycle of the 18 gallon tank I bought 3 Amphiprion, 2 percula and 1 clarki. after 2 week's the new aquarium came and I moved them to the bigger one, doing new cycle right now (one of the percula die).

So, I got 1 percula and 1 clarki. can they breed in the future? (they too small right now).
Another question, what I need to make it biotope for Amphiprion Percula? Can I put like 5-6 or more Percula in my tank for biotope?

Edit: BTW what kind of light I need to grow at the tank only Rose Bulb Anemone (and soft corals)?
Second edit:
My tank in inch:
Length- 40
Side- 14
Water Depth- 20 (got 22 but I don't add water till the very top)

Why would you move the fish to the new tank before the cycle was complete? Do you know what Ammonia and Nitrite do to fish? Pretty cruel considering all the other ways to cycle a tank these days.

While I don't condone your actions of the new tank etc. it is possibly for your two clowns to pair and possibly breed in the future.

I disagree. I've never seen a clarki paired with an occ or perc, they usually try to kill them.

I would venture to say the reason you have not seen it is because well it's not really done often or if at all. Aggression would be the main issue, but I don't find the ultimate goal impossible. There are many breeders that have aggression issues with any type of clownfish. There are new hybrids announced all the time. I have seen one paired with a maroon. So I do think this is a possibility!

Paired and breeding are two totally different things. There's a saying never say never but I'm going to safely say it's NEVER going to happen. :celeb1:

Other then your fear of aggression what reason would you say never? There are a magnitude of different hybrid projects brewing and this can easily be one of them. I honestly see no problem or reason why this couldn't happen. Look at he citron clown. Maroons are super mean and they made the citron just fine
