This is a two part question.
First question. I'm setting up a 90G tank and would like a pair of clowns. Appearance wise, I really like the contrasting colors. Not so much the Onyx clowns, but the darker reds and oranges with the vivid white stripes. I haven't seen many in person, but I'm thinking maybe the Maroons, Tomatoes, or Cinnamon. The only fish I currently have is a Yellow Clown Goby, Chromis, and a Algae Blenny. Other likely tank mates will be a Kole Tang, Foxface, firefish, some sand sifting goby, and perhaps an Angel fish. So, I guess you would call it a semi-aggressive to non-aggressive tank? Which clown would fit best? Are tank breed generally the best?
Second question. I want to get an Anemone for the clowns to host in. What I'm wondering is what order should I add the following; clownfish, anemone, and corals. I'm thinking Clowns first, Anemone second to let it find a good spot, then start to add corals. But that is just a guess. Does it really matter what order?
Thanks
