pairing different clowns

[yaya2930]

We just lost our male gold striped maroon clown and would like to try to pair the female with another male soon before she has too much time on her own. My husband would love a black and white perc. and we thought it would be really nice to have one of each. But...is this even possible? Will they pair or just never get along?

Any thoughts or redirections would be appreciated.

I don't recommend it. Maroons are agressive, females even more so.

could work with a small black and white perc worth a try could always take the b/w back and get a maroon to pair it with

I've seen a maroon/ocellaris pair tending their eggs on www.rareclownfish.com

I forget what article, but I think it was in a pic of the month thread

maroon and black white occelaris happens more than maroon and percula

Maybe I can convince him to go that route instead. Thanks for all your help!
