Two species of clowns in 140??

[jsalinas1]

I have 3 black clowns in my 140 but I was reading today that on larger tanks you can introduce more than one species in larger tanks. Is this true? I would love to put 3 gold stripe maroons in there also.

It's possible in that size tank (6'?) but Maroons, I don't know.

i have an ocell and a true perc in my 40g with no problems.

I know 2 differant species is ok but what if 1 species is already in tank and then add onther later. With all the rock work its impossible to catch fish so I don't want to put 3 of another species and they all fight to the death.

i have 1 occel, and 1 maroon in my 65. my maroon stays with my bta, and my occel usually hangs out around the mushrooms. they don't fight and never have. i had the occel before the maroon.

1 maroon might be ok, but 3 would be pushing it only because the maroon are aggressive. They will attack each other. I have a B&W perc and a true perc sharing space in a 120 with a maroon, the maroon is about to be moved to my aggressive tank. He is still a little small compared to others but he has been picking on the other percs.
