foxface and clown

[zack schwartz]

HI
I have a 30gall. tank and was wondering if I could put a 3inch foxface and a 2 inch clown. Should I try. Plus are they hardy. I am new at this so I was just wondering.

Hay zack, I had both of these fish in a 45g about a year ago. They get along fine but the foxface will eat like a pig and soon outgrow your tank. In my opinion the foxface will get too big too fast and you will have to return him or upgrade our tank to a larger size soon if you do get him. Maybe you should stick to smaller species of fish like the clowns you mentioned. I have a pair of percs taht are great to watch. A few fish you could also put in a 30gal would be firefish, hawkfish, sixline wrasse, just to name a few. Depends on what you like. HTH
