Mixing different colored cownfish together?

[yoyoyoo123]

Can I mix an orange clownfish percula with an oscillaris, or with a black clownfish or with an onyx clownfish?

I currently have a fat clownfish (not sure if percula or oscillaris) and would like to get a different colored clown (that's smaller) and get the two to pair up.

btw what type of clown is this?

go for the gusto buddy, just keep it a perc or occelaris

btw, looks like an occelaris

i have an ocellaris and im getting him an onyx pal... i have heard from numerous reliable sources that it should go off without a hitch as long as they accept each other in general... (the act of pairing clowns can be tricky as it is...

I'm pretty sure my clown is a female now cuz she's pretty big. So i'll swing by the LFS and pick up a small little onyx clown if possible and hope they pair up. Thanks! im excited!

I dont think that clowns of different breed will pair up.

ive heard they will... and just in case you didnt know yoyoyoo onyx are not cheap... but if you did... happy reefing.. lol

 

[yoyoyoo123]

r00onmac, yeah i've heard.... that's why I was wondering if I should risk it!
