My first inhabitants!

I added two clown fish to my evo 13.5 today and they’re looking happy. They’re very small and my friend who bred them has said he hasn’t seen them growing much so will be interesting to see if they grow faster now.

The tank is very clean because it’s very early days and I’m cycling with atm colony. I’m sure the ugly stage will be coming.

Oh yes. The ugly stage! If you do this right and go slow you can minimize the ugly stage by controlling nutrients and making sure colonizing bacteria doesn't let them grab hold. What kind of clown is the 'blank' one? Interesting lack of coloration!

That is SO cool! I've seen so many of these 'hybrids' (for lack of a better term) recently. Back 15 years ago, I'm sure we had them, I was just clueless. I'm just getting back into the game so I'm seeing some stuff I just couldn't imagine previously!
