New GBTA and clown question.

[solastsummer]

I just got a green bubble tip, im aclimating him right now, when i let it free should i shut off my pumps so it can attach easier? or should it just be fine?

My clown question is i love black clowns, but when i have friends over they like to see a normal looking clown the false perc. If i were to buy them at the same time would a false perc and a black and white do just fine together?

I don't think mixing different kinds of clowns is a good idea unless it is a big aquarium.

You can put a black and white false percula in with the traditional false percula.

I don't usually turn off the pumps when placing an anemone. But if you feel more comfortable doing so, go for it. Just DON'T forget to turn them back on.

will they pair and spawn even if they are different colors?

 

[SaylorsReef]

They can, but there is no guarantee, just as there is no guarantee with those of the same color. Providing the right environment and food will play a huge role in this.

I've always turned my pumps off for 10 minutes or so. A black and white and a regular ocellaris will pair up just like two regular ocellaris clowns would.

My anems do not seem to have a problem attaching. I hold them in place with the other end of my scraper (plastic handle) and after 30 seconds they attach themselves.

I have two ocel. clowns and one tomato clown. They get along great!
