Designer Clownfish

[ClownFishKeeper]

I am a very big fan of Snowflake Ocellaris clownfish. My question is: with all the inbreeding being done to isolate those specific genes in these clowns does it make my them more prone to in tank bacteria, viruses, and parasites? I am looking into shutting my 65 gal down for a 120 or maybe 180. I would like to keep my Aussie Black Ocellaris and my Black photon clowns in the 180 with the a pair of these Snowflake clowns without the risk of disease. Yes QT will be done but I don't believe QT to be 100% effective.

Nothing is 100% effective at preventing everything. But, a good QT regimen comes close to preventing 100% of common parasites.
IME, tank bred fish have about the same disease resistance of wild fish. Tank bred clowns are very unlikely to carry brooklynella, a killer parasite common with wild clowns.

BTW, More than 1 mated pair of clowns in any tank is iffy at best. Usually, a mated pair will not tolerate any new clown.
