BTA lonely! Help me choose my next Clownfish!

[jbird0420]

I had to move my Gold stripe maroon to the Big house 225g. I noticed him starting to eat my Dungans and picking on other corals close to the anenome. On top of that, he won't let certain fish on that side of the tank to clean up. So! What is a great inexpensive clown??? One that will not pick on corals, and not to territorial. And most importantly, will accept the BTA as a home!

Thanks for looking and helping!

Most of the inexpensive clowns that are natural hosts of bubbles are also large and aggressive, such as tomatoes, clarkiis, melanapus. I would opt to get a pair of orange occellaris. If you want to spend a little extra money I would get the black Darwin variant. Occellaris aren't as nearly as destructive as maroons, tomatoes, etc.

LOL yeah I'm a little biased towards them. I have a pair of black ocellaris right now and they are mean little suckers. I cant even do tank maintenance in peace but they never stir up the sand or redecorate the tank like my tomatoes used too.
