Mixing Clown

[7391eidde]

I have a pair of Blacker Ice Clowns in my 90 gallon. I have recently tore down down my frag tank which had a Tomato Clown. I want to keep both Clowns in the 90 gallon. Has anyone had a positive experience with keeping a Tomato Clown and Designer Clowns in the same tank? My 90 Gallon in 36x24x24

The tomato will prob end up killing the little oce clowns, or the pair will end up ganging up on the tomato.
As a rule, one pair of clowns per tank, and only one species. The more aggressive/larger of them will kill the others.

This is all typical of beginners who want to keep multiple clownfish species thinking and wondering if it can be done successfully. The reality is a resounding NO. Mixing clownfish species is not advised.

It does work in a large enough tank .

Not a beginner. Been in this hobby for awhile now. Never ventured into Clowns until recently. Wanted to make sure first before wasting $300 on my pair of Clowns.

You want to spend $300 on clownfish?!?! What are they made of? Gold?!?

I have a 225 with a breeding pair of maroons ,a tomato, another single maroon, 3 picasso percs and 2 designer occelairs all these have been together for approx 2 years with no issues all depends on the size of the tank and different territories of the fish.

I have a true perc and a ocellaris pair in my 140g tank. They stay at each end of the tank with no issues. They did fight in the start (perc attacked) i put her in the sump for couple of days and she stopped.

But i wouldt try it in a 90g i think its to little.
