New fishes

[Badiskm1]

So I ended up removing my niger trigger and my dwarf zebra lionfish
I added two purple queen anthias, 1 bicolor angelfish and 1 rock blenny,
So now i have:
2 ocellaris
2 clarkii
1 one spot foxface
1 orange spot goby
2 purple queen anthias
1 bicolor angelfish
1 rock blenny
My aquarium is 300 liters/ 80 gallons
If anyone has had a similar stock and had problems please tell me, an if you see any problem in general please comment thanks

The two clarkii's will kill the other clownfish and any other fish in their 30 gallon territory. Otherwise IMO looks fine, although the anthias and the foxface would like more swim space. Just my 0.02.

The foxface will get 8"+ so a 80g will eventually be small for him

Purple Queen anthias are expert level fish requiring nearly constant feeding. Are you equipped to handle that?

 

[Badiskm1]

Yes I am I now feed the aquarium 3 times a day, carnivore and herbivore pellets, two types of flakes, pe mysis and krill superba. I realize that the tank is small for adult foxface but he is still small. The Clarkii's have recently been aggressive to the ocllearis. I forgot to mention I also have a snowflake eel

Are they eating the supplied food? I am thinking they are not.

Matt is the only person I know successfully keeping this fish. See this.

I dont think they are, I tried feeding this tiny pellet foods (Dr. Bassleer Biofish Food) that are 0.5-08. mm but I dont think they are interested in them, what would you recommend?

I have 2 occelaris and 2 Clarkii coincidently a snowflake eel as well in my 90 gallon. There is aggression generally between the 2 breeds of clownfish. The clownfishes are located on opposite sides of the tank. In my scenario I found lowering hostility by giving my clarkii something to host, like an anenome. But one of my male occelaris clownfish are most aggressive.

Hahahaha, I first put a big magnificent anemone the same day I put the Clarkiis and they hosted with it, then last Tuesday I put a smaller anemone and the Ocellaris wanted to host in it, but the Clarkiis didnt let them and now they host with both of them, and they are constantly chasing the Ocellaris

Most likely the A. ocellaris will be killed as the A. clarkii mature. As far as the anthias, try capelin fish roe and nutramar ova five times daily

Ya, Im trying to remove the Clarkii's, but it isnt proving successful. For the anthias, I talked to my LFS and they said they'll eat mysis, but it obviously isnt working, and where I live the aquarium business is not as developed as it is in America, so I doubt they will have what you mentioned.

Yes the clarkiis are greedy bastards lol they always get first pick. I was holding a bTa for a friend of mine, and sure enough, they were drawn to it right away. It was like their beach house that they hardly use, but would not like any one else to use.

 

[Badiskm1]

Lol, thats the exact thing thats happening in my aquarium!!

Well, maybe so, maybe not. If you are in Asia, it is easy. Masago is a popular type of roe that comes from the capelin fish, which is a member of the salmon family. Masago is small crunchy orange eggs that is used in a variety of sushi rolls to add an additional texture and flavor. It is used commonly as a substitute for the more expensive and traditional tobikko (flying fish roe). If the LFS is telling you that, get them to take them back since otherwise they will perish.
