Dom, thanks alot for all this great information and some info on what it takes to run a beutiful tank like that. I am definitly going to apply some of those points to my tank to reduce phosphates.
Best of luck
I recently added a new male maroon clown with my female adult maroon. I first placed the new male in a small plastic continer right by the females anemone and allowed her to attack container for a couple days, moving it around a little bit from different sides of anemone. Once she cooled off I...
I waited 6 weeks before getting any new fish. I never quite fgured out what happened. I ahd water check at 2 seperate fish stores as well by my own kits. I only added a new fish after the 4 remaining fish in my tank were symptom free for over 6 weeks along with heavy water changes. At this...
I recently paired an existing female clown with a new male. It took about three days and now there together ant the females anemone. However they seem to be lethargic now, with white blotchy discolorations on their skin. The male realy isnt eating well and the female doesnt seem to be as...
they have decreased proximity and are now like 5inches apart with out chasing or nipping. I hope they start mating. It appears as if there beggining warm up to each other
there not fighting too bad but I hope the female accepts male as a suitable partner, for day one, the little guy is roaming the top of the tank away from her and she occasionally chases him.
I put him in main tank. So far female has been chasing a bit but not able to really nip due to males fast movements. The female is going about her normal anemone hogging and not paying much attention, but periodically chasing. The male seems to submissivly turn around and wave its tail and...
I am attempting to introduce a small (male, judging by lighter color and small size) to a 110 gallon tank with an established female maroon clown in hopes they might mate. I currently have the small maroon in a plastic container (transparent) right next to maroons territory, getting her used to...

My maroon ignored my green carpet for a while and chose a sebae anemone over it, but about a month after discovered it and is now in love and wont get out of it
Just remembered I also added the cleaner wrasse, cleaner shrimp and garlic to food just previous to the demise, wonder if the attempt at cure could be partially responsible? It seems the same exact pattern as yours
I had almost an identical situation to what you are saying. Ive had a saltwater tank for over 3 years and never had anything happen like this. It appeared to start a week or so previous with a little ich on my hippo tang and yellow tang (both over a year old). Than within two days 75% of my...
