clownfish

Hello, I picked up a young Wyoming White Clown a few days ago. Just a few minutes ago I checked on the tank and he is swimming nose down I thought maybe the return pump was a bit to strong as he was swimming down right below the overflow. I turn it off it has been about 20 minutes and he still...

2 days ago I purchased a pair of adult clowns from my lfs, and today I saw the female go down to the substrate and start “fanning” the substrate with her tail, she wasn’t scratching or anything like that, is that normal? Or just a random thing they do?

I first noticed about two weeks ago that my young Photon Clownfish showed a slight difference in appearance. Since his eating habits haven’t changed and his overall demeanor was the same I said I would just look over him for the next week or so. Today I looked at him and it seems to have gotten...

Hello all, I’m a new reefer getting my first pair of clownfish & im curious about their diet or just fish diet in general from experienced reefers! My plan is to feed a mixed diet of frozen mysis shrimp & pellet food. Would it be better to feed pellet or frozen food in the morning? & which one...

I traded some frags to my LFS and used the credit to get a new fish. (Currently I have a 6-Line wrasse, coral beauty angel and a black clown in 30g tank). I picked up a platinum clown. I asked the guy how he think she'd do with my black clown I have had for a year and he said as long as the...

Hey all, hope all are well. I have had my clownfish sense they were juvenile and still mostly orange and white but to this day I can’t figure out why they don’t act like all other mated pair I’ve saw. They are two different kinds I remember that but I that they were both ocellaris so they would...

I'm setting up a 2nd tank that is going to be a clownfish harem with anemones. In my research they recommend to get all the fish from the same clutch so to avoid aggression. However, I am failing to find any place where I can buy all the fish from the same clutch? Anyone have any experience or...

Hi, I recently got into the hobby with a modest 33g reef tank. Everything has been running smoothly for the past few weeks, and every tank inhabitant seems to be doing well. In my tank dwell 2 clownfish (a Black ice and a Darwin) as well as the good old cleaner shrimp and a few other cleaning...

I havent posted about my pair of Allardi's for a while, so I thought I would share some videos of them enjoying one of their larger breakfasts. I have decided not to risk keeping cleaner shrimp or peppermint shrimp in my aquarium anymore, as mine keep disappearing. I think they have developed a...

hey guys i was wondering if there’s something going on with my clown. he’s about 1.5weeks in and he does this every now and then but i can’t seem to tell if he’s trying to get oxygen or if he’s hunting for pods somehow?? i’d think low oxygen levels would make him more desperate to reach the...
