    Okay for every rule there is an exception. I have had a pair of Maroon clowns in my frag tank for about a year. I recently added a 75 grow out tank to my system and decided to add the clowns and my Kole tang to that tank.

    The Maroons have buddy'd up with the Kole tang. It is pretty wild but they are inseparable no aggression from the Maroon at all. They almost seem like the have bonded. Its pretty cool as the Kole has been a very skittish fish always hiding when I come in the room.

    Just thought I would share I think it is pretty cool how they are "schooling" together and always hanging out.

    On rare occasion, uncommon bonds do form. Congratulations. :)
