would they be alright in a fluval evo 13.5? want a pair or if not them what 2 fish would do alright in there i have a liopropoma rubre that i would like to put in but i think it would be impossible to catch him in my bigger tank he is very shy and don't seem to like all the big fish in my tank so i think the fluval evo 13.5 would be better for him
 
I really wouldn’t recommend them in a 13.5, at least with other fish. Clowns are mean. My female mocha killed her mate, a firefish, and a gramma in a 13.5.
 
I think some of that is predicated on the personality of the individual fish. I have two clowns in my Fluval and they get along perfectly fine with the other inhabitants. They seem healthy and happy.
I have a firefish and clown goby in the same tank. I have seen zero aggression from the clowns but maybe I am just lucky.

nah the clowns would be on there own i would only put 2 fish in my 13.5 other recommendation was instead of the clowns put my swiss guard in but i think it would be an impossible task catching him the gramma and firefish sounds like a good idea though
 
I can say from experience that I have a pair of black storms in my Evo 13.5 and I've seen zero aggression between them and the invertebrates. That being said I don't know how they would fare with other fish because I only have the clowns, but I would imagine that they wouldn't be too aggressive towards other tankmates unless they're super territorial.
 
Are black storms still available? I cant find any for quite a while
 
I take back my previous comment. My orange clown got the crap kicked out of itself this weekend. Only possible culprit is the black clown.

Yup, clowns can be unpredictable sometimes. Sorry to hear about that, hope they make up.
