2 different clowns in a Biocube 29??

I have a Biocube 29 gallon. I already have one saddleback clown in the tank but my BTA just split into two. Would it be possible to put a Oc. Clownfish in the tank since it could host the other BTA or would the clowns kill each other?

 

Expect you would have a fight on your hands. Two different clowns in a larger tank can be very risky.

Even if two are same species.

Might have success if both introduced together as juveniles, but still risky.

 

Clownfish should be added at the same time and one should be smaller than the other. At this point you would have alot of agression and one would end up dead. I would suggest adding a different fish...not a clown.

 

Well in a single word No ! But if you try it let us no who it works out for you.. I'd give you long odds one will kill the other sooner or later

 

Clowns do grow too

HI,
I have 3 clarki and they are getting rather large in a 55 gal one is dominant over the other 2 and will not share his anenmone so there's abit of a battle over that.
My 2 burgandies have taken the back corner of the 55 gal as their place and will attack anything that comes in their space ( includding me) geeze the are little nippers.
My clarki are getting very large at only 6mos old. I was surprised how large they can get that fast.
Many species of fish are pretty docile unitl the are sexually mature then they turn into monsters and will kill about everything even some freshwater fish will surprise you as adults.

So be sure you allow enough tank space for the adult animal. there are many dwarf fish that would be perfect for the cube, I like many of the dwarf angels some will stay very small. a watchman goby is another fish with personality and small stature.
Try to keep only small dwarf fish in a tank that size.
maybe one true percula and a couple chromis and some shrimp either skunks or peppermint. shrimp seem to be good critters in almost every tank great cleaners and don't seem to hostile.

the pigmy angels are very small and very cute.

 

I have successfully had two different types of clowns together but in a larger 100g plus tank. They were a clarkii and a tomato clown, however were fairly small at the time of purchase. They were friends and didnt fight with each other in the months they were alive.. good luck if u try it.. but in a smaller tank there will be less territory and thus less room which could be a problem..

cheers,

Implies much... :-/
