Mixing 1 Small and 1 Large Clown in Big Tank?

[forddna]

Are there any ways to mix one large clown with one small (percula or ocellaris) in a 220g (tall 180g)?

limit their space...confine them into a corner of the tank...or put them in a breeder's net/tank inside your display tank until they pair...or you can just throw them into the display tank and let it happen when it happens...unless you put them in a smaller tank like a 10 gallon or something until they pair...

Thats a big tank to chance a pair in...I would put them in a 20g or something for a month, and then put them in...Breeder net is a bit small though...

Do they have to "pair?"

No they don't have to but you could def. end up with some bickering between the two of them...

Why not just get two that are a pair already?

If I happened to stumble across the duo that I might want, I would. But I can't make myself decide on just one species yet, so I'm just asking for opinions.

I happen to have one more pair of Wild Caught Percs I would be willing to sell.
