    How long will it take to pair up clownfish

    I had a large female ocellaris clownfish by herself for about a month and added a much smaller ocellaris clownfish about 5 months ago. Back when the larger female had a "bonded" male (before he passed away), they would be next to each other all the time. While the female did not kill the new...

    Looking for some advice/thoughts

    i recently had one of my two clown fish die. I have been delaying on getting another. I would like to get at least one regular ocellaris clown and I would like to get two black and white ocellaris. Do you think they would be aggressive toward each other? And is it ok to just get one regular...

    Is this normal clownfish behavior?

    When I get home from work at night my clownfish goes nuts. I usually feed during the day and he gets fed plenty. He seems like he is all over the place and bumping into the glass but he may just be precisely swimming to each side. This seems a little erratic. Thoughts?
