CBS with baby clowns

[gogators1088]

ive got a pair of clowns that are about half an inch or so in a 30 gal. i have a coral banded shrimp i want to move from 1 tank into the 30 gal. do you think ill be ok or do you think the CBS will try and eat the clowns?

I personally wouldn't do it. Wouldn't trust a CBS in a large tank, so there is no way I would trust one in a small one.

why dont you trust them? just eating corals or eating little fish? the tank itd be going into is a clown nem only tank

 

[Toddrtrex]

Because they are fairly aggressive and have been known to go after fish, and with your clowns being so small, and in a small tank, just too much of a risk for me.

I had a CBS with my clowns (1+ inches) and repeatedly saw him attempt to catch them. They always got away but I didn't trust him and got rid of mine a few days ago.
