    So I was on craigslist today and this person is offering a 4in tomato clownfish. It is listed for 20$ . I have a 29G tank and was wondering what you guys thought about tomato clowns I heard that they are mean fish. Can I hear your imput? Thanks!

    I would get a smaller tomato clownfish and pair them and make a cheap yet interesting species tank.

    IMO, a tomato clown is too large for a 29g tank, let alone a pair. I would look at something smaller, such as an ocellaris or percula clown pair. These would be the main fish in your tank.
