clown fish question

[salty11122233]

Hey everyone im new here and I wana ask something , wat would happend if I put a clown fish in cold water thanks

 

[my300reef]

How cold is cold water? I've seen clownfish do okay in a 71-82 degree window. I would think any lower than 70 degrees and you risk the fish failing to thrive, and eventually dying.

 

[salty11122233]

It would be about 18 -20 degrees celcuis

 

[my300reef]

I would not subject clowns to that temperature for a long period of time

Why would you want to do that?

 

[salty11122233]

Ok what colorfull fish would you advise for that temp

 

[salty11122233]

I want a coldwater tank for a specific fish but its not colorfull and I just want a touch of color

 

[fairl80z]

Catalina goby . Very colorful

 

[salty11122233]

Ok thanks ill look into that gobie does anyone else know of a colorfull coldwater fish thanks

 

[salty11122233]

The catalina gobie is beautiful but to small I want a fish that can go up to at least 6 oor 7 inch thanks though

Blue spot jawfish

 

[salty11122233]

Thanx will look into it

 

[Martini5788]

What size tank though?

 

[salty11122233]

The tank will be about 520 lt, but at first it will be 50 lt

 

[Martini5788]

Your only option is the Catalina goby then for a tank that size. 50 liters is tiny.

Garibaldi

 

[salty11122233]

Ok thanks I will only have the tank for about a year then put them in a bigger tank

 

[salty11122233]

How fast do those garibaldi s grow and how agresive are they

 

[olemiss reb]

520l is too small for a Garibaldi. Species tank level of aggression.

If you don't Mind me asking. Why are you wanting a cold water tank?
