Mixing Ocellarus Clows

[Dundermifflin]

Can you mix s/m orange Ocellarus clowns with black Ocellarus Clowns if introduced at the same time. Right now only two blue tangs, one porcupine puffer, one dogface puffer, and one blue jaw trigger in tank.

Yes depending on the size, and they will pair up.

I've read sources that have said no. Granted, I've never tried but love the ides

You may get your info here.

This is the wrong link. Sorry. But good info anyway.

Yup, I have a pair, one orange and one black. Good to get the black one larger because I hear they're a little slower so they don't do too much damage on the smaller one.

I agree that it's certainly possible. I got an Oscellaris and a Maroon when I set up my tank. Both were the same size at the time. They've been getting along well for over a year now. I'm not sure if they've become a true mated pair, though. The Maroon is now almost twice the size of the Oscellaris. But they don't hang out all that much and she can be kind of a jerk to him on occasion.

I don't think the Maroon and Occ will pair up. I've never seen a hybrid. Maroon will get larger than Occ and likely meaner by adulthood.
