It's official I am now a owner of a Black and White Clown. I went and bought a very nice deal on an established 28 Gallon JBJ Nano Cube. There is about 36-38 pounds of Live Rock. My black and white clown, a decent size clean up crew, and a few nice corals as well, also some red and blue mushrooms. I will post some pictures of the tank tomorrow when I go pick up my Six Line Wrasse. I forgot to mention the Black and White Clown I have is actually misbarred, from what I have read these are from England tank raised. That was interesting to find. Pictures to come.
Proud new owner!!!!!

Very nice black clown.
My plans for the tank are to keep softies, some frogspawns, etc. When I'm up for the task that is when I will venture into getting a BTA. Thank you all for the kind remarks on the clown. We are naming the clown Shamu. Will try and get some pictures up tonight, if not tomorrow.

Be careful when adding that they can be devils and kill your fish. My dad had one in his 75 sump with some of my mom's fish and all of them expect one mean female clown died.Shamu's new tank mate.
I did quite a bit of research before making the purchase, thank you for your input. I will keep an eye on her. I will be adding a Yellow Watchman sometime today as well. I read that if all the fish are introduced around the same time that will lessen the chance of fighting. So far the six line has just been cruising through the rocks and crevices. Shamu definitely holds his own. The six line appears to be submissive towards Shamu, which is a good thing.

careful with adding all these fish so close together- nano's are delicate, and such a quick and large increase in bioload might cause an ammonia/ nitrate/ nitrite spike.
that said, Shamu is adorable, and that sixline is gorgious! Sixlines are such pretty little fish, I've been considering adding one to my biocube as my last fish (its that or a longnose hawk), and I love B&W's; I can relate to the excitement, I left school early the day my misbars were sceduled to arrive so that I would be able to acclimate them properly. I miss my female (she jumped while I was at camp), but I still have her little mate.
