mFrame Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I've had a lot of clownfish since starting my tanks. My least favorite were my huge mean Clarkii's. My most favorite up until now have been my original pair of breeding false Percs. Several months ago I lost that pair when treating my tank for an algae outbreak. I waited a while, but found this pair of naked clowns at the Aqua-Dome last week and had to have them. So far they're doing great hosting my mushrooms, but I'll be moving my RBTA clone back from my larger tank to give them a nice home shortly. I thought you might enjoy seeing a pic of them. Until ORA has those lightning clowns for sale, these guys are pretty cute! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesL Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I had some naked clowns, and yes they were probably my most favorite. I have had various maroons over the past, and they all turn out mean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+brian.srock Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Yea my false tries to be mean and attack my hand. I just grab him and give him a good shaking and he's left me alone 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jestep Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Those were the ones in the zoa tank? Very nice. My favorites are gold maroons and then naked or one spot percs or ocerlaris. I love the look of the clarki's but just too aggressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevinB Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 By golds do you mean the gold stripe variety? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jestep Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Yes, gold stripe. I had one that was very friendly a while back. But most are definitely territorial and aggressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+o0zarkawater Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Thankfully my gold stripe maroons are nice, since mommaclown is about 4" long and 2" tall. Her male though is only 2" long on a good day. I have a pair of false percs that the female is mean as can be, bites me everytime I stick my hand in the tank.

RobR Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 That's a great looking pair of fish, nice pick up. Only have experience with my occ/perc pair, and I gotta say that my little perc picasso is one of my faves. Really like the look of the snowflakes and picasso's. After that the pink skunk's are a very cool looking fish too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subsea Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Tank raised Ocellaris are my favorite. The last group of aquacultured clowns that I received had been imprinted with people during its prejuvenillle stage. I was presently surprised to see them "school up" and beg for food the first time that I feed them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
