GSM and true perc pair

[jgopp131]

Is it safe to put a GSM into my 90 gal with my perc pair? I really like the GSM clown but I don't want to get a lot of hostility.

Most likely will lead to aggression.
You'll probably end up w/ just the GSM.

 

[kkyyllee]

no

 

[Jeremy Blaze]

Would not do it.

The GSM will kill your percs.

Ok I have a question. I bought a clown about two weeks ago. I bought another one just yesterday. What if both clowns happen to already be females.

 

[zma21]

Then that is a definite problem. I may be wrong, but if both are females you will wind up with one female and one dead clownfish.

 

[davocean]

Females will fight.
If clowns are small most likely still male.
You'll find out soon enough.

 

[sls0768]

They were really interacting good together. Perhaps this is a good sign

 

[Jeremy Blaze]

What species and how big?

I am assuming the first one is acting a lot better than before?

I thought you removed it from your tank?

 

[GuOD]

I jumped to that exact double pair before consulting RC. I currently have 2 percs and 2 GSM in my tank.

It may work fine at first but apparently will lead to lots of hostility down the road.

with 150g tank, you could build a 'rock wall' in the middle, and hopefull that would curtail a lot of interaction, therefor aggression, which would result in one fewer pair of dead percs!

my female maroon is a b!tc#...she beats everything that isn't her nem. everthing.

 

[sls0768]

I was asking for the neighbor who has my clown now. She doesn't have a computer.

GSM gets much bigger and meaner. Percs do not have a chance. However, you still have time for alternate plan when they are small yet.
