Maroon clown

[microlady]

My yellow stripe maroon has been irritating my green toadstool in my big reef too much so I removed her and now she is a 29 gallon with a flame hawkfish. Will this size tank work for both of them? It would be nice to add some urchins later for algae control and maybe an arrow crab or coral banded shrimp. I'd really like to get her a nem too. Any advice on buying and caring for a bubble tip? Thanks!

No one?

I had a spawning Maroon pair in a slightly smaller tank (80 liter) and they were doing OK there. As for tank mates - you will have to try and see how they get along.

Will you have a BTA for it in the biocube?

Thanks for the reply. Right now I plan on just having the single maroon and a flame hawkfish, but I've always loved watchman's gobies so I might try one too. It would be nice to add a BTA, but I might try something easier like frogspawn or frilly mushrooms first and see if she will host those.

Or they would host her . . .
