Clarkii clown & Ocellaris clown

[mideda]

Hello- I have had my 60 gallon cube tank up and running for 3 months now. My (2) ocellaris clowns have been in there for 2 months and going strong. I was at my usual spot looking at purchasing another pair of clown fish. I asked about putting another pair of clowns in the tank and I asked about the Clarkii clown. He said that should be ok to put in with the Ocellaris clown but at first they might get a little angry but should settle down after time...My problem is that they have been chasing around for a while now...any suggestions??

I think the lfs misled you. It is not recommended to keep more than 2 clowns in a tank, and mixing different clowns is a bad idea. Not saying its impossible, but it is likely the fighting won't stop. I would take a pair back to lfs.

well when I got home the tank seems to be settled down...no physical damage to either clarkii and they eat like pigs lol
