Clown dominance over anemone

[dallasdallaghan]

hi all,, need a little advice , i recently combined two of my tanks, one of these tanks had a young 2 and a half inch maroon clown with a host anemone and in the other tank there is a full grown 5 inch tomato clown with an ego,,,, i am wondering will the tamato clown kill the maroon for its anemone

I've got $5 on the maroon clown. They're scrappy! Either way, two clownfish enter, only one clownfish leaves.

How big is the new tank they've been combined into? Unless it's quite large I'd say one clown has to go.

I'm in the market for a maroon if that helps you decide...

 

[dallasdallaghan]

the new tank is 6ft x 2ft x 2ft and lots of live rock and thanks for the offer timandlevr10 but im living in IRELAND and the transit costs would be over $249

Put your least favorite clown up on Ebay.. Seriously, take the one that you least favor back to your LFS.

buy a clown coffin and call the priest to read them their last willand testament one will be on his way out
everytime they see eachother they will start to fight if they dont fight then just wait i dont think maroons like any other clowns even other maroons get beat

hmm...Ireland...so meeting halfway is out of the question?

how many days of joint living space have we reached so far?

still no torn fins?
