ocellaris

I bought my first marine fish yesterday, a beautiful pair of ocellaris clowns! One yellow and one a picture perfect Nemo orange. I’d had plenty of freshwater fish in the past, but this being my first marine fish... needless to say I was nervous. I didn’t have a container to drip acclimate them...

I can't seem to find them anywhere. My local stores all had ocellaris and some fancy variants but no percs since I started the hobby a few months ago. Online retailers have been sold out. Is there something about percs that make them less desirable? I think the small cosmetic differences make...

Hey guys, I recently purchased a massive Ritteri Anemone from my LFS. This guy is huge and has a purple brownish base and tentacles With purple tips. Now, this anemone has been in someone’s tank for a few years and then the LFS bought it for credit and has had it for a month. My concern is...

Pretty brutal. My two Allardi's attacking my two ocellaris clowns. You can see in the video how he keeps ramming him into the anemone. (sorry for the vertical filming, it wasn't me but my girlfriend who took it) I was out the country when this happened. The Ocellaris survived 10 days with this...

Hi guys, I have two ocellaris clownfish. One black/white and regular one. Black is smaller and always being attacked and trapped in the corner.I have never seen him vibrate. The aggressor sometimes vibrates. From what I have read the black one should eventually start submitting and the...

Hi Guys, I was just wondering if anyone has had success in mixing clownfish species. Like 2 x Ocellaris and 1 x Clarkii for instance? I know maroons are little demons and not likely to work. I have heard and read mixed reports about this. If you have done this, could you please also state...

I think I am ready for a Nem. My tank is a year old +-. 35 hexagon but moving all to an in wall 120 in the next 2-3 months following basement construction. Have mushroom, Kenya tree and toadstool leather coral frags growing. Two clownfish (one ocellaris and one blood orange hybrid). Temp...

Hi guys, just wanted to share my most recent experience with you all. I know it doesn't mean much but maybe people can maybe benefit from it somehow :) So I have a pair of Ocellaris for a year now, and went through a couple of anemones before with the two not even looking at them. First anemone...

Hey guys, basically this is the situation. A few months ago, I purchased two Ocellaris separately, within a week or two of eachother. For whatever reason after seemingly pairing the female began attacking the smaller male, so I eventually removed the female clown and placed her in my 8.5...

Hello, I am running a 75 gallon reef tank and have recently added a juvenile Kole Tang to my current stock list which includes two ocellaris clownfish, one banggai cardinal, one fairy wrasse, and a sand hopper blenny. After acclimating the Kole it took quite well to it’s new environment. The...

Hi all, Wanted to share my progress on rearing ocellaris fry. Last night was a partial hatch and I was able to catch 32 fry with a vossen trap, while chasing away a banggai cardinal with a pipet all night lol. It's the morning after and have fed the fry rotifers (have been culturing in a...

I just took over a tank from a friend. She gave me about 45 pounds of live rock, 2 ocellaris, 1 dottyback, 2 striped damsels, a decorator crab, and 1 cleaner shrimp. She had them all in a 40-gallon breeder with a cheap protein skimmer. I just moved it all to my 50-gallon with a 20-gallon sump...

Tank: 180 gallon Mixed Reef, 3 live rock pillars Livestock: Dejardini Sailfin Tang Yellow Eye Kole Tang Flame Angel Checkerboard Wrasse Leopard Wrasse Blue Chromis x 2 B&W Ocellaris Clowns Blue Spot Goby I'm wondering if I can get an anemone for my clownfish pair. Since I only have three...

I need some help identifying if something is off with my little clown. He's in my second system and the display refugium now. I put him through a full duration of Furan-2 to address if the white skin mark was a slime coat issue or an infection from a wound. I just put him back after being in...

Welcome to my 75 gallon tank build thread! I hope you enjoy the progress of my tank that I started in August of 2017. First we'll begin with all the tank info on this post (with pictures), and the start of my tank on the second. See the last post for the most recent update. Thanks for viewing...

I got a bubble tip anemone for my 2 ocellaris clownfish that I used to break in my new tank. I've had the tank running for over a year now and decided it was time to get them a home. I got a BTA for them and it acclimated fine, but the fish didn't to it right away. no big deal, I figured they...

Breeder pair of rare black snowflake clown fish. I love them but Im running out of space in my apartment and need their tank for holding frags and they wouldnt be happy and our super protective of their nem. $400 for the pair is my price. Will possibly drop price down if no buyers at first. Male...
