yellow stripe maroon clowns

I am thinking of gettting a yellow striped maroon clownfish, but this means I would have to give up my 2 false percula clowns. Do you think it would be worth it? Also if I got one is it ok just to get one? Instead of a pair? I have a bubble tip anemone that it would be great for. One more question is there a big difference in care between false percs and yellow striped maroons?

Maroon Clowns get huge. My friend has a full sized Yellow Stripe Maroon and it is monster. He has it in a 75 with a few other Sebaii (sp?) clowns and they seem to do ok. But the Maroon loves boss all the fish around
Care isnt so much different, just have to take theiir size into account. They are pretty tough fish.

Oh ok thanks. I heard the minimum is 30 gallons. I dont know if I would be able to get one if it is 75 gallons.
