Maroon clown for free

I have a maroon clown that I need to find a home for.
FREE but you must pick.
I have a mated pair that I would like to place in that tank.
Once again FREE.:D
 
I have a large maroon in my 55. Do you think they would get along. I tend to think they might battle to the death.
 
You would need to add a small, juvenile maroon clown to go with your larger female. The juvenile would then become a male. Once they've become a female they're not likely to get along with another female.
 
Jorge , When I paired up some maroons what I did was ordered one as small as possible and then , it took about 2 weeks to get them to co-exist ...

In the case of Ades Maroon I would say anyone who has no other clowns allready should pick it up and then down the line try to pair it with a much smaller one....

I had a thread about this very subject here...

Some good info there as well as in the Clown forums...

Yes they would fight.
Then we would be on the news about illegal clown fighting.

I've got $10.00 on the big one
 
I am interested, I have always wanted one my only concern being that he would move around rocks and stuff in my tank. Is it possible to combine him with oscillaris?
 
Mixing the 2 would most likely end up in the Oc. losing out. Mixing clowns is warned against in all but the largest of systems...
Also , of all the species one of the most aggresive toward other clowns is the Maroon.
 
Yeah thats what I thought, I will pass on this. I am going to try and get a school of clowns in my tank I think.
 
Even a school of clowns may be dificult. . More than 2 is taking a risk ... I think depending on the size of the aquarium of course... I had 3 percs and eventually they started bullying. This of course is just one story , I am posisitve you will find some who have kept more.... Check out the clown forums here ... Keep us posted as to what you decide..

As they mature, that'll result in a fight to the death until only two are left.
 
Sorry the free clown fish decided to stay put. No moving for the clown.
My mated pair of YSM clown found a bigger home.
