Mixing Clowns

[Koddie Doo]

how would you feel about adding 2 tomato clowns to a 90 that already has:

Captive-Bred Ocellaris Clownfish
Midas Blenny

Plenty of room to hide and 5 nems to choose from if the new one's host.

Bio load is good I know, but want them to be peaceful.

I have a strong feeling that the Tomato Clowns may beat up on the Oscellaris Clowns; I once tried to keep a Tomato clown with a Maroon Clown and all they did was fight all the time.

Thats a lot of tank and cover for clowns to pick their own spot. Ive had many tomatoes and for clowns they can have a bit of an attitude but there's room in there to find a spot. Plus the others were there first.

IMHO, every pair of clownfish should have appr. 500 l (132 gal) of its own space, I would not add tomatos!

I currently have 8 clownfish living peacefully in a 90 gallon tank but added them all at the same time. This mixture of clownfish has been working for almost a year. What is odd however is none of them are hosting a single large long tentacle anemone I added to the tank 3 months ago.

That Tomato clown will most likely attack any other clownfish in the tank.
