Number of False Percula in a 55G Tank

[gussy]

What's a good number of false percula to stock in a clown/anemone only tank of 55 gallon? There are 2 large and 2 small anemone in the tank right now and no clown fish. I had a single very large maroon clown that I gave up last year as he got really dark and big. I've heard that if it's more than 2 you'll need to go 6 and above but I don't know if this is true or not. Anybody have around 5 similar clown fish in a tank?

Thanks!

If you want more than 2, (I'm assuming here), just make sure you buy them when they're small. That way, dominance and sex isn't set yet.

Personally, I would stick with just 2 clowns. More then that might work in the short term, but all bets are off when a pair forms and starts spawning.
