    They have about the same care requirement as other clowns. It would be a bit tight for them in a ten gallon, but with no other fish in there I think they would be fine.

    they will be all alone, of course i might have a cleaner shrimp or two but fish wise they would be all alone.

    They will be fine when they're young but I think 10g is too small for two 3" fish fully grown. JMO

    Actually I just realised that the pink skunks get a little bigger than ocellaris so I would definitely put my vote down for no. Even websites which are notorious for putting down tanks on the small side for the minimum acceptable size say 30g for them.

    Obviously it's up to you but I think that's quite crowded for two 4" fish.
