hello
looking for some infight on clownfish selection. i have a 270 gal tank 84"L x 24"L x 31"H. i really want to get a pair gold striped maroon clowns, but i know they can be a menace. ive had them before multiple times and other than messing with me when i got close to their anemone they were always model citizens with tankmates. now if i decide not to go with maroons and stick with ocellaris clowns how many can i get away with in a tank this size? can i get away with 4? i would love to have 4 with different colors and patterns but i read alot that eventually they will kill off each other until its down to 2 or 1. eventually i will have bubble tip anemones. the maroon clowns ive had always hosted the nems and i love it but again not 100% sure i want to risk it cause each fish has their own personality. ill take any input on this.
