"Mini ocellaris clowns"? (At Petco)

[LordJoshaeus]

I purchased a royal gramma at a nearby Petco for my saltwater tank today, and while deciding on it (vs. a purple firefish in the same tank) I noticed the above. The advertising claims these clowns were bred to reach no more than 1.5 inches...has anyone had long term experience with these particular clowns? And would smaller size really translate into them needing less space? I'm not particularly interested in clownfish, but I'm still curious. Thank you.

At least they didn't call them "fun size" clowns. lol

No idea about less space being needed though.

Have one of these now and he seems satisfied with occupying a corner of the tank to himself; but explores around whenever he feels like it. I don't think that smaller size would equal less space, especially if looking for a pair as well.
