Clownfish compatibility

[scubasteven]

Does anybody know if I can keep a smaller normal ocellaris clownfish and a frostbite ocellaris clown together in the same tank and things be peaceful? I wanna get both so that they have a buddy but was wondering if they would be good together since they have different colors?

U can but be ready for a fish jail in case of emergency as female can sometime be mean and can also kill male.

Still Wait for expert's advice

if the clownfish are both same species and a similar size (one a little bigger than the other) it should be ok, adding them both at the same time would be ideal.

agree should be fine ,little bigger than other

Don’t mix species.

No one can tell you that two fish will be peaceful. Too many variables when it comes to personality of fish.

PS: Consider getting at least three same species clowns, it will increase the odds of getting both sexes. In that way, you will get a more natural interaction of clown fish hierarchy.


For the female liberators out there, this one is for you:

All clowns start out as immature males, then in an established colony, one dominant clown wil rise to Alpha/Super male. Female clowns develop from Super Males.

Clowns will be clowns, Even same species is a 50/50 shot. Theyre probably going to fight at some point, so have a floating correctional facility ready.
