sweet. got two onyx clowns today--pics and crappy videos

[unbreakable]

well i got my two clownfish today. i quickly made them a little home out of left over acrylic before they arrived and then drilled holes around it. female is a big bully, shes a little fatter than the male and hes already been shaking. she bullies him around by pushing him and taking food from him. here they are (sorry about the crappy quality of the videos and pics..its a camera phone):

had to make this for the two in my 28 since theyre too small and didnt want my fish to tear them up. when theyre a little bigger theyre going into the 14 until they get older

in their temporary home

Super cool!

 

[reefman13]

Great color. Good luck with them!

 

[GSMguy]

great looking Rods.

he does use a great box thing is much thicker than any other box ive gotten...

 

[unbreakable]

thanks everyone. the tiny male still gets beaten up, but hes been aggressive when it comes to eating.. hell quickly take the food and and swim to the other side away from the other one. pretty fun to watch them. i had to cut out a lit made out of acrylic for them. the little hanger covers half of it, but i wanted to make sure the other half was covered in case they decided to jump

had to dip the lid in saltwater so i could make some shade for them from the lighting. they seem happy and eager to visit the rest of the tank, but that wont happen til next year


gsm guy, you said you have onyx clownfish right? do you have any pics?

 

[Haddonisreef]

My quection did they ship them in the same bag?

 

[Thinslis]

I bought a pair from Rod and they came in 1 bag (double bagged)

 

[Haddonisreef]

I would think that would stress them out but as long as they are ok!

 

[unbreakable]

yup, both came in the same bag. they were stuck side by side and didnt want to leave each other. when i added them into the tank in the little hang on acrylic box they were fine. they bully each other around a lot and are aggressive eaters. all day they push each other and chase each other

 

[mcola78]

Who is Rod? How can I contact him to get clowns?

 

[Thinslis]

Do a google for Rod's Reef.
