    I think I finally have a pair of maroon clowns. Since my last update they are regularly together till I try to get a photograph of the pair. But I have a couple for anyone who's interested.

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Beautiful clowns.

    As a young adult I worked in a Casino that had a large tank with a 4 inch or larger Maroon in it. I thought it was the most beautiful fish in the world.

    I kept them for many years, but dang they get soooo mean when they reach 4-3 years old.
