    as you may have heard earlier this week i had a few unfortunate carpet surfing incidences resulting with death.. there were my pair clowns and a wrasse. after morning over them for about a day or two ;D i have finally decided to buy another pair of clowns but now the problem is what type of clown i am now after... i was just wondering on peoples suggestions to this thread..
    the tank is around 30 us Gallons with one diamond watchman goby 6 turbo snails and a few hermit crabs...
    there is a bubble tip anemone in there as my last pair were MENT to host it but thought it would be more fun dying ;)
    but yes now i am stuck with what type of clownfish to get next... hit me with some suggestions forum!

    The black and whites are cool, but I also love the Maroons. Even though they can be bullies, a maroon with gold stripes is gorgeous.

    I am in the process of researching the livestock for my new 110g and would love to get some Maroon clowns, however heard that they can be very territorial and aggressive, so I will probably go iwith the ocellaris or true percula clowns. Love the black and white too though... so obviously haven't made up my mind yet. But to be on the safe side, the ocellaris are probably the best choice.

    I have one b&w and one orange ocellaris for my pair. They get along great, are both ocellaris so they can still mate, and have two different colorations so it's like two totally different fish.

    +1 on the b&w and orange pair....best of both worlds and plus when they have babies you could get all sorts of cool color morphs! (which could be sent to people who suggested u start with the mix pair ;) )

    Glad I could be of some influence. One of each is definitely the way to go.
