3 percs?

[lettermark]

Hi...
After a month of tank cycliing I have added some perc clowns.
However, they were given as a gift, and are very young and and there are 3, instead of 2.
Do you think I could have problems with there being 3 as they mature? I'm not interested in them mating, but feel that maybe I should return 1 before I get attatched....is it likely 2 will gang up on the 1?
Thanks

Yes, it is HIGHLY likely that two of them will pair up and kill off the outcast. I would return one.

I agree, mine did.

Sometimes you can get Ocellaris to tolerate a third party but never with Percula Clowns.
