Got a couple of ocellaris clowns in my tank that have been in there from the very beginning. Added as three-quarter inch juveniles together about five years ago. They grew up to always be approximately the same size. I was expecting one to grow larger than the other and hopefully they will eventually mate. This never happened. They grew up always the same size pretty much. In the last year one of them has grown slightly larger than the other. I expected this one to emerge as the female and the smaller one the male. Then hopefully they would start laying eggs. However, tonight a strange thing happened. The smaller one turned the tables on the larger one and was chasing it all over the tank. Aggressively. These were not love taps. It got to be so violent I had to net the little guy and I have I it in one of my large nets dangling in the tank. Has anyone ever seen anything like this where the smaller clown turned the tables and started attacking the larger clown? Because I certainly haven’t. Any thoughts welcomed.
