Who Gives A Fish Forums

Gutted for the little uns.

They're shy little guys, and the algae on the glass isn't helping - it's like they're hiding behind it.

When I bring them home I will. Just setting up a new tank now. They're still at the store, I'll be picking them up soon - next week or two. Got a bubble tip anemone for them, hoping to breed them in their own tank.

I just found these awesome mocha clowns, and I'm super stoked. Setting up a new tank for them, and I'm gonna give breeding a shot. Scored them for 60 bucks.

I was considering the temperament of the Sunrise Dottyback, not the tank size. The Cherub angel was recommended for 30 gallons, but I'm okay with that. I need a semi-aggressive fish that can hold its own against Nemo, he's quite the bossy clownfish and I don't want him bullying the new addition.

No, it's a Black fin fairy wrasse. I've actually had a rethink and I've come to realize it wasn't ideal keeping her in a 10-gallon tank. I've since traded her in and I've got a Sunrise Dottyback on hold now.

I've just introduced my Black fin fairy wrasse to the tank, it was getting picked on in my other one so fingers crossed that'll help perk Nemo up a bit. Thanks for all your advice, I really appreciate it.

I already have a pair of clowns and I'm really not keen on adding another. Would another active fish be enough to lift his mood, or is that just wishful thinking?

I think that breeding idea might not work, cherub angelfish and ocellaris clownfish aren't exactly compatible. Maybe getting another active fish would perk him up though?

Hey everyone,

I'm having a pretty rough day - my lovely angel fish passed away. Nemo the clownfish isn't himself now; his eating habits are off and he just seems really down. Do you guys think it's possible for fish to get depressed? What can I do to help him out?
