I saw this guy at PetCo and fell in love with his appearance I wanted to get another clownfish for one I already had a platinum. I bought a regular one but it gets nothing but picked on by my original she did well with a black snowflake so I grabbed this guy to see if they would get along...
I got my new clownfish about 2 weeks ago and he has started to swim at the bottom of the tank, sometimes sideways. He sometimes flashes (i think that’s the right term). I’m afraid he is sick.
Here is a video, you can see him swim sideways at the end:
Upon getting the clownfish we treated with PraziPro for 1 week and a 5-day treatment of Ich-x. The clownfish were alone in the tank so they did not need to be qt. They were eating well and showed no sign of disease.
Upon receiving the tang we did a freshwater dip, a 1 month qt separate from the...
Hey guys so I just wanted more input but I’ve been trying to keep clownfish in my tank, I’ve been taking my water weekly to WWC and LFS for test and everything is fine, all my parameters are fine, I’ve been able to keep in the tank a Hippo Blue tang, purple tang, chromis and a blue throat...
My fish is pretty pale. I've done a check on the parameters and everything is okay. Ammonia 0, Nitrate 0, Nitrate 0. It's odd that everything is reading 0... my ph is kinda on the high side since I have a cleaner shrimp. It's 8.4 about. I got the shrimp 4 days ago if this makes a difference...
I found out this morning that my clownfish, which has been in the tank for roughly 9 months, has some sort of white splotches/spots over her skin. I want to know if this is the start of ich or velvet, or maybe brook, or something else. There is one other fish in the tank, a coral beauty at the...
I currently have a juvenile ocellaris clownfish and an orange ricordea mushroom in my tank.
In order I am thinking of adding these fish though I’m not sure if adding all of these are possible or if I would need to cut down.

Hi everyone,
I have a 20-gallon tall tank. Inside I have two ocellaris clownfish and one bicolor blenny. Even though I had my clowns for two years before adding the blenny, I don't see any aggression inside the tank. They even let the blenny go inside of their pot, which I think it's pretty...
So, I went to my LFS and got to know a really cool lady who unfortunately is moving on with her life outside of working at a fish store. But anyways we were talking and I was explaining the type of tank system I wanted to build. I was thinking a bookshelf with multi differing levels and sized...
Hi,
I’m starting my journey breeding clownfish. I will have three pairs (I’d start with one, but I already have three unpaired female clownfish so why not?). If each pair lays twice a month, I’ll reasonably need 6 fry tanks. I’m going to divide a 55 gal into 6 sections that are ~9.5 gallons...
Okay so this is a newbie question, but I haven’t been able to find ANY info about it online.
How do you enrich your rotifers? I will be using Selcon. This question is specifically relating to feeding clownfish fry; the goal is to increase HUFAs in live food to (hopefully) better survival rates.
Hello everybody, I have a 20 gallon long that has no other fish besides a goby and a blenny, and I was wondering if I could keep a single maroon clown in there? I also have an rbta in the tank. Thanks!
Hey All! Super new to the hobby. Just “inherited” a 120 gal tank + fish from a friend who was moving. I’m looking for tips and advice as to how I can make the tank better.
It’s a 120 gallon tank running on a fluval FX4 filter, eheim jager thermostat heater, 2 AI prime lights and 2...
Hello everybody, I have a pair of clownfish that we’re doing great for a couple of months, however now one of them is laying on its side and breathing rather erraticly, is also has no appetite. Everything else in the tank is fine, including the other clowns and anemones, so I know it’s not a...
I picked up a pair of small clarkiis from my lfs the other day as I think they look cool. I’ve read that they are demons to the point that they will rip your arm off if you put it into the tank? What are your personal experiences with them? I would love to hear!
(They are going into a 75 gallon...
I haven’t been able to pic a favorite and stick with it. So these are some of my favorites. What do y’all think?
I got a 150 gallon and am looking to get 35-50 clowns depending on size…(lightnings will be less)
but what do you think?!
Hey guys,
I recently purchased a tank that’s 65 gal, I’m cycling the tank currently it’s been a week and looking good, eventually I want to add clownfish but I was wondering if I could add 3 clownfish, they’re going to be put in together at the same time but I wanted to make sure there...
I have a Red Sea Max E-170 (34G Display) with a pretty well-established ORA Black Ocellaris Clownfish and an equally well-established ORA Orchid Dottyback. My clownfish is the boss of the tank and makes sure the Dotty knows it whenever she swims over to his side. I successfully kept a Yellow...
Hello, R2R!

In this episode, we will be taking a look at how these fish are captive-bred and raised, from egg to your aquarium!
Now that we have transferred the contents of the original ORA® Build into...
Just curious if anyone has an issue with their clownfish moving around rocks, shells, and other decor in their tank. I have a gold x lightning maroon that moves everything around every day, and some of things she moves are impressively big. She used to also dog in the sand before I put her in a...
I have a bonded pair of snowflake clowns that are hosting the empty bottom corner of my tank, when I have a fat, fluffy BTA for them to enjoy. I have tried catching the fish and putting them directly onto the nem as well as herding them toward it, but they swim away without a moment's...
I have had my 13.5 gallon Fluval Evo AIO for about 4.5 years. I've had a pair of occelaris clowns since starting the tank. Recently, the large (almost 4 inches) female started bullying the male and, I think due to the bullying, he jumped out of the tank. I recently added a small clown and the...
