Thanks Craig! Nothing but girls under this roof... :bum: I'm surrounded by them! :lolspin: I'm going to try to figure out how to do an HD one for my other tank.

Thanks guys! I have 12 onyx and one fancy name, I don't remember the name. 13 total. I originally had 3 chocolate glazed, but they were really rough on the anemone. I got my clowns from unicospollos a few months ago. Great guy. I'm really happy with the clowns.

Wow that thing is amazin! is that a giant toadstool in the middle?

So no problems with the clowns? I always thought you couldn't keep more than 1 pair in a tank, i would love to get more myself.

Thanks! The toadstool's on the left side of the tank. My favorite shot in the video is the shot looking up under the toadstool from the side of the tank.

I would be really careful adding more clowns to a tank with an existing pair. IMO, it's asking for trouble. There's always exceptions, but the norm is trouble. If you really like your current pair, I'm not sure adding more to an established pair would be a good choice. There's always risk doing more than a pair.

There's too many variables to suggest a fool-proof way of how to do it with the least amount of risk. I've read of guys with large tanks having problems with more than a pair, but I'm not sure of how they approached it or what their anemone or clown selection was. IMO, if you have enough natural hosts for them to run/hide in, and choose a less aggressive breed, add them all at a small size at the same time, the odds of success are better, but there's still risk. My group has a lot to choose from to hide in when aggression starts, a few square feet of anemone folds/corals to hide in. If you choose to try, I would read more on it, there's a lot of good info on the boards. Read from multiple sources, then you can start to see underlying trends and weed out attitudes and opinions. Best of luck to you if you try!
