Sad :(

So while I was on vacation sometime in the last week one of my clownfish went "hardwood surfing" I have my tank covered with a mesh screen except for the last 5 inches in the back because of the over the edge return pipe.
I have since remedied this by making 2 little screens that go on either side of my overflow so there is only a very very small jumping spaces now.
But alas I have still lost one of my Occy clowns.
I want to get the remaining clown a mate, the 2 where paired so I feel so bad for the leftover guy all by himself and all. I was wondering if I could put a black and white or one of the other "fancy" occys in there and as long as it was a lot smaller they could hock up and be friends?

I am assuming they both have to be occys.... or could I put in a perc? Thanks for the help guys!

Sorry to hear

If you are looking for a mating pair then Occy, if just a tank mate whatever catches your fancy.

 

So sorry for your loss...

Agreed.

 

So I want a mating pair just cause its way cool to watch them. Not that I ever plan to breed them but still neat free fish food So you are saying I could do a black and white as long as it was occy they could pair? YAY!

Aw bummer, I didn't know clowns were jumpers

 

Me either I had been gone for 2 weeks maybe he got upset and jumped.... Oh well I don't get why it was the clown. I have 2 wrasses a jawfish and blenny... Those should have been the jumpers

Yes I have seen them pair.
