Clownfish Harem

[ohm786]

Hello, I'm new to really understanding the dynamics of clownfish. I've owned them in the past, but always as a pair and never really appreciated them.

I'd like to change that and try something new. I have a 80 Gallon shallow reef 48x24x16 tank with a extra large 8"-10" GBTA. I would like to see if I can setup a harem of clownfish in in this tank. Would it be possible? How should I do it? Should I go with the ever-popular Oscellaris? Any advice would be appreciated.

The likelihood is probably strongest with the oscellaris because they are so peaceful in general. I'm not sure they will stay a harem though. Others with more experience should chime in here.

Then read several more threads on reef central about multiple clownfish in one tank. Then you should come to the conclusion of, it's not worth it, stick to one pair of clownfish. Plus there are so many beautiful fish, why limit yourself to just clownfish.
