Occelarris and Perculas

[Glenn]

I have other tanks but just wondering if this is ok - I have a pair (not necessarily "paired" yet) of Black&White occelaris in my 50cube who have hosted in a large clump of mushrooms - about 6 or 7 of them on the rock. Soon I will be picking up a pair (not sure if they are a "pair") of true perculas. Will there be any issues/aggression between the clowns or will they be ok in the cube?

There will be a huge problem they will fight to the death I tried it once and end up killing a black and white one... anyway hope it helps Troy

Near term anything is possible, long term not a great plan to mix clown pairs in the same tank.

 

Anemones move, breeding happens, conditions change, all contributing to territory and pairing changes. Best to skip the experiment.

Glenn, it won't work. I can't place the percs into the tank with the occs at all. The occs will kill the percs.

ok - so they won't go into the 50cube .. I'll put them in the 65

 

thanks to all for the responses
