True percs mixed w/ Clarkis??

[Allin14]

I have a pair of Clarki clowns in my main 60 gal reef and a pair of True percs in my Nano. I have to take down my Nano tank and I don't want to have to get rid of my percs, does anyone think that I could put both pairs in the same tank? Thanks

nope those clarkii will defend their territory to the death

by the way that is mixed pair you have their the female is a percula and the male is ocellaris.
in case you were wondering why they dont look alike?

i think its kind of cool as long as your not trying to breed them for specific genetics

sorry to bring bad news

No, its ok it is pretty cool. They have spawned a couple of times but your right I am not tryin to breed them really.
