    happy or bored... life in a tank probably not much different than life on an Island...

    My clowns are hosting a frog spawn... they're covered in freckles now from the the frogspawn... do the burn marks ever go away?

    Not true. A "false perc" is a Amphiprion ocellaris while the "saddleback" is a Amphiprion polymnus. A different color morph would put it in the same species aka Amphiprion ocellaris which it is not. Scientists have deemed it to be a different species, not simply a color variant or morph of a Amphiprion ocellaris. They tend to be less hardy then your average Amphiprion ocellaris and are hands down a much harder fish to ship IME (10 years importing)

    I have a question though, right now I only have one black saddleback clownfish, and I just ordered two online. Now my question is, will they all fight in the tank?
