@jeffwilliams6101 5 лет назад

So I know how aggressive ocellaris can be to others of same but could you introduce pairs of different colors ocellaris in a larger 150-180g aquarium and be okay? Like maybe 3-4 pairs of different variants? There are some cool colorations out there like you showed. It would be too bad to be restricted to only one pair of your basic Nemo looking clownfish. Thanks dude. Keep bringing it.

I have Clownfish. I was scared just like other beginners to saltwater tanks. I find my saltwater tank so much easier to take care of than my freshwater tank.

@ericlind6581 5 лет назад

Joey Jones Aquatics May I ask why? I only have freshwater.

@joeyjonesaquatics507 5 лет назад

Eric Lind I find that the water parameters do not fluctuate as easily in saltwater. That could be do to the difference in dishes bioload. I also find that it’s easier to fix poor water parameters.

@ericlind6581 5 лет назад

@@joeyjonesaquatics507 Thanks. I'm on the fence about starting a salt water tank and I'm trying to learn what I can and hear other's experience. It sounds like your salt water is not heavily stocked which is always easier to manage in any tank. But I would think that a fresh water tank would easier to fix since you can just do a big water change. Not sure if that is doable with salt water tanks. Also with evaporation in a salt water tank, the salinity goes up so don't you have to constantly top it off? What would happen if you were away for say 2 weeks? Would it survive? Don't have this issue with fresh water.

@joeyjonesaquatics507 5 лет назад

Eric Lind It really depends on the issue and how bad the issue is. I had high phosphates and my coral was dying. Did a water change and by the next day it was opening up again. If you would like more info and opinions join the live streams every other Saturday morning at 8am PST. There will be lots of people who can share their experiences. I think you should definitely start a saltwater tank if you are ready to. It’s very beautiful, fun, and you expand your experience in the hobby. Keep me updated on your decision. 🤘👍

is it ok to keep a solitary clownfish in a smaller tank (say a 28L) like you would with a betta fish, or do they need company?

@miked3713 5 лет назад

I have a pair of clowns for about 4 years now and around last year they started having babies, around every 12 days. Its great to watch how they clear out an area on a rock or side wall and protect the eggs while the male fans them. Sadly I cannot catch the Larvae once the eggs hatch and feed them the Rotifers in a separate tank, so they all end up to die. I don't have the space or the time for this. Any ideas on how to get them to stop? Thanks

@haydenwegner675 5 лет назад

How do you measure salinity. And what if you already have premade salt water

Hayden Wegner a hydrometer or refractometer will work for more accurate results but premade should already be in 1.020-1.026 range

If you are keeping the tank simple with just clown fish and live rock do you need a protein skimmer?

We are going to get another frostbite for a companion but I am wondering what other fish and invertebrates would go well with them. I have a 29 gallon tank and I don’t want to overcrowd so I was thinking maybe one smaller companion fish so it isn’t aggressive toward the clowns and two bottom feeders. Any suggestions?
