Do I have to have 2 clownfish in my tank?

[todd141]

I keep reading about "mated pairs" and whatnot - but I want to know if I need to get another clownfish.

In my biocube 14 I have a clown goby, a firefish and just bought a true perc - very small about an inch and a half - and would like to know if I should have bought 2 of them.

Will he be OK by himself or should I go buy another true perc?

He will be fine by himself but I like the look of of a pair.I would not get a second clown unless you were going to upgrade soon to like a 29 or larger.

thanks clowns101.....

i've got 2 ocellaris in my 75 gallon tank, not going to upgrade the BC14, so I won't add another to that tank.
