pink skunk clownfish and false percula

[bucsfan34207]

I have a Oceanic biocube and a 140 gallon reef tank. In the biocube I have a false percula and the 140 gallon I have a pair of pink skunk clowns. The false perc has never hosted an anemone. While the pink skunks have a long tentacle anemone that they host. I am going to take down the biocube and add the contents to the 140. Any advice about the pair of clowns and the false perc cohabitating would be appreciated.

Thanks.

It's generally a bad idea to have more than a single pair of clownfish per tank. The dominant pair will usually attack and harass (sometimes to the point of death) the other clowns in an attempt to drive them out of their territory.

One of the longtime posters here, Todd, kept pink skunks for a while. He's posted about how aggressive his skunks were once they reached sexual maturity. I would advise against putting the ocellaris in with your skunks, but if you do, monitor them all closely and be ready to rescue her.

Adding the false perc to the 140 withe the pair will be the biggest headache you will ever have. I have kept clowns for 7 years now I own 3 pairs and just sold 2. I am very informed on these type of fish and IMO you will end up with a dead clownfish somewhere along the line or a huge disaster tearing the tank apart trying to catch then after they start fighting which won't be long .
