A. eppiphium?
are they already paired?
Bubble tip anemone best bet, can do H. crispa.

if the are fire clowns ( a. eppiphium) they will most likely be bad to the bone, evil fish, but beautiful, if a melanopus not so bad but still mean beautiful as well.

good luck.

Yeah they are as mean as they are pretty and they are beautiful when they get bigger. Clowns can take over 2 years to start spawning if at all. Just enjoy them, feed them a ton, keep their tank parameters stable, and pray... LOL

How large are they now? Have they already decided who is male and female? How long have they been together?

I think we need a pic.

Had them about a month... They are in my main tank, but I could put them off by themselves in another tank....

They are biting me everytime I stick my hand in the tank...


but they are only about two inches long... i guess they are babies..


This is the bigger one..

its a beauty, I see tons of them here in thailand as thats predominantly where they are from (andaman, not gulf).i have seen many diving they live in family groups in a mass of BTA,s (clone field) here not solitary BTA,s.
As i said great fish but an attitude as they feel they should have stripes;)
