clown fish

Whitecap Clownfish are characterized by their vibrant orange bodies, blue hues and distinct white head caps, which give them a unique and striking appearance. In aquariums, Whitecap Clownfish are relatively hardy and easy to care for, making them suitable for both beginner and experienced...

Hi everyone i just noticed today that my clownfish has two white spots behind the white circle around its head , on the right side below its dorsal fin, i thought that its two scales look different but im really worried that it might be ick, can someone more experienced confirm or suggest what...

I just got 2 clowns at my LFS and they are in QT. I have been dosing ichX and Paraguard for about 1 week. The black and white clow is showing brook or velvet idk. Since im new I dont want to take them back they are active and eating.

My clown fish has been acting weird. Constantly laying on their side, but will swim when I walk up to the tank. Their color looks great, I don’t see any signs of an illness. I’ve had this clown for 7-8 years now. However. There does appear to be a slight purplish mark on their one side, but...

hello everyone! My name is Mia and I am new to the hobby from Minnesota! I first began my saltwater journey about 1.5 years ago, and after MANY obstacles and roadblocks along the way, my 108 gallon fiji cube tank is finally complete (until I add more fancy equipment in the future!) I currently...

Hi all. I have had this clown exactly a year now. It's had this spot on its side since shortly after I got it but it's always been quite small. In the last few weeks it's gotten to be quite large and I'm not sure what it could be. It's never caused problems but lately he's been having trouble...

Hello all my tank has been running for 4 weeks, 1 week with fish in it. I put in two clowns last Friday one seems to be thriving and eating everything while the other hasn’t eaten much if anything in like 3/4 days and is now breathing rapidly. Did I just get unlucky with this one?

I recently added a tang and now my clown has a huge white patch on 1 side. She is about 18 and from the wild.

Hello, I have a clown that has been thriving in my tank for a week now. All the sudden it is breathing heavy, swimming on the sand bed, and not eating. The water parameters are 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, 20ppm nitrate, salt at 1.026, tempature of 78, with a PH of 8.0. The only thing difference...

Ok so, I have a 6 gallon cube and I want to keep a clown in it. Also maybe a shrimp or urchin… idk. Maybe not. Would the bio load be too much? I’m really scared about algae taking over. Thanks for your help.

I bought two little clownfish from Petco only because I just loved the look of this little guy they sold him to me for 20 bucks as a regular clown but I’ve had people say he looks like some type of snowflake clown and just want some more opinions.

I'm interested in adding a pair of designer Clownfish to my reef tank. Show me your clowns and indicate what type or 'design'.

Alright guys, thoughts on this stock list for a 75 gallon? - mandarin goby/dragonet - molly miller blenny - pair of ocellaris clowns - possum wrasse - flasher wrasse (linespot) - ruby head fairy wrasse - melanurus wrasse (or other Haliochores of similar size) - unsure about this one

Hello all, I’m new at Reef2Reef I have some questions for you all I’m an experienced FRESHWATER only hobbyist I been doing them for a long time, I have multiple tanks but I decided to “jump” to saltwater I’ll start small and then get very big down the line in 3 years after getting really...

Hi, About three months ago I bought a new small clownfish online for my single female clownfish (her partner died more than a year ago). When it arrived it looked a bit dull due to a light slimy coat. I was a bit worried but it seemed to diminish over time and the fish was always very active...

Hey reefers! New reefer here - currently QTing my clowns. Finished 2 week copper tx yesterday and started prazi yesterday night in QT tank. My female clown this morning had small red/brown round spot on her head - completely new overnight. My Q is : Is this just a nip from the other clown...

Hello, I just got my two new clowns from Dr Reef today. Acclimation went well but now I notice one of them is rapidly opening and closing its mouth. The other is just dandy swimming around while the other sits in the corner. Both of them were exploring the tank when they first got in. I also...

In the hopes of finding my tank a better home, i am selling a 35 gal tank with a resident clown fish named Aleister Crowley (Al for short), as she is a notorious power bottom and practiced in the dark arts. Anyways, she, along with the gaggle of bristle worms I collectively call “Steve” and...

I have a 25 gallon salt water tank and am new to this. I am hoping to get some insight. We did a fishless cycle for a month, tested nitrate, nitrite, ammonia, phosphate, calcium, alkalinity and magnesium. Once all levels were good, we introduced two clown fish along with a few snaps and...

Hello all. My new tank (13.5 gallon) has almost completed cycling and I am ready to add my first fish in. I was thinking of getting one clown to start off with, and eventually adding a second clown a month or so later. I do like Ocellaris clowns, and have also considered a Fancy Snowflake clown...

I’m interested in buying a small-medium <2in mocha Vinci clown. Would much prefer to pickup locally (Long Island preferred but can do NYC/north jersey if needed). If you have any, especially a pair, (both don’t have to be vinci’s) please contact me, I’m interested.

My clownfish has been sitting at the bottom of the tank like this for a couple days now. In the morning he swims up and eats but during the rest of the day he just stays low. I’ve had him for a year now and haven’t introduced any new fish ever since. Parameters are steady, ammonia, nitrite...

If you have any helpful tips I would love them. I intend to try something that may be considered controversial? I don't know. Well see this is a long post. I keep a lot of freshwater tanks, they are all planted, they have drift wood, and I use sponge filters. My 2 oldest 10 gallon tanks are so...

I have a new 25 gallon to wich im transferring two clownfish, tailspot blenny and blood shrimp. I don’t want to add any more fish and instead want to focus on inverts, I love them, crabs, sea stars, urchins, you name it. What is a good list of good inverts I can add that aren’t super tiny...

Hi all, There is something I wanna ask and see if anyone have a experience like this. So 4 month ago I bought a regular clown fish (Nemo) and an exotic one which is more white and 4 orange sections. Btw he is beautiful will post pic. So the other regular one got sick and died after 3 month...
