Hey all,
Just got one of each color. As soon as the pink went in the tank it went straight for a bta nem owned by an occillaris pair, who werent interested in new friends. I put a small sebae nem in the tank for the skunks and i put the orange one in right on top of it, but no interest. Will they eventually find it on their own or do I need to get another bta since it gravitated directly to that? Really didn't want another, my red bta is beautiful but HUGE, but i love clown/nem pairings. Also, I've seen people with like 12 skunks in a nem. Are they more open to multiples once a pair is established or is 1 pair per tank all you get? Thanks. This was kind of an impulse buy (if that's not obvious
lol) bc my LFS never has skunks and I've always wanted them but never did a ton of research bc they were never available. It's a 220g mix reef, running 4 years :).
 
Well I’ve got skunks mixed with ocellaris. The skunks occupy a green tip nem and the occellaris a hammer coral. My tank is a Red Sea 525xl. Obviously the fish are going to decide what they want to do. I’ve had other tanks where an established pair of ocellaris simply scared the skunks into not even eating. Good luck!
