    So I have an almost empty BC29 setup right now, only has 4 sexy shrimp, some kenya trees, and some zoas, and I'm going to get a pair of clowns but can't decide what kind. I like the clarki's and skunks but my better half likes the gold strip maroons so i'm now torn between all three. Any thoughts anyone.

    Cinnamon clownfish and occelaris/percula clownfish. I like the whole tomato complex.

    Black saddlebacks are my fav plus they look really good under blue spectrums. Clarki's are awesome too though real calm fish, I hear I don't have any.

    You don't have many options really. I'd go with Occy or a Perc. The rest will out grow your tank. You don't really want two 4-6" clowns crammed for space do you?

    I really like the wild tomatoes... when they get older, the almost black with with stripe is very impressive.

    I have always liked the Maroon/gold stripes as well. They are just mean as heck though.

    The pink skunks have been drawing my eye lately.
