I am debating between a GSM or Tomato clown. In my tank right now I hav a Red Emporer Snapper, Volitian Lion and BTA. I like the GSM better but a friend told me that they are too peaceful and the snapper and lion would be too aggressive for them. He recommended I get a Tomato since they are more aggressive they would have a better chance. Also, which would more likely host the BTA.

I have had both. My tomato was like a dog. He would lay in his sebae and follow around my tangs. He was a super cool fish. He was also real mellow if another fish came by his anemone. My GSM is also a super cool fish, however, he gets upset if anything comes near his anemone. He is also a loner. I have heard that people have had trouble with both. IMO the GSM is more agressive. Aquacultured may be less than wild. I'm not sure though. Either way clowns are interesting fish. Get one that is decent size b/c you will be keeping it with big fish. I would hate for it to become food.
