Healthy looking RBTA with what clown?

[orcafood]

What clown do you guys recommend I put with my RBTA?
Maybe from past experiences?
The RBTA is about 5 in now and seems to be doing great!

You didn't mention what other fish you have, or the size of your tank, but a small gold striped maroon would certainly be pretty with it. Maroons are natural symbionts for RBTA's, as are tomatos, clarkii, among others. Although not natural symbionts, ocellaris and perculas will also often take to them.

thanks, I have a 90 gallon with a 20 gallon sump and 24 gallon refugium. There is one fire fish, one foxface lo, one royal gramma, one mandarin, and one lawnmower blenny.

I have 7 Perculas and 5 BTA, 2-rose, 1-green 1- tan and 1- white, they love them and can't get enough of them. They are a happy little family. Also the perculas are some of the least territorial and aggressive of the clowns. Although beautiful the maroons have a tendancy to become aggressive as they mature.

skunk clowns are nice and overlooked sometimes. I have a cinnamon (nigripes) in a rose now.

GSM, just count your fingers whenever you put your hands in the tank.

Gold stripe maroons are very nice looking fishes and the bta is a natural host.
