    hei guys... im going to LFS today... i wanted to check first whether its smart move... or if anyone's done it?

    can i mix a pair of occellaris clownfish with a pair of tomato clownfish in a 55 gallon reef? no anemone? and pair of tomato are both 1 1/4 inch in length?? and occellaris might be slight smaller??

    thanks guys!

    Its possible in larger tanks, i used to have three pairs but in a 55 theres slim to non chance of it working
