Who Gives A Fish Forums

You have to decide what you want from this tank - is it to make money and breed them, or to simply enjoy watching them?

I came across the breeder's website, donisreef.com, which was linked from that forum post by KJ. They've clearly put in a huge amount of time and effort to learn about breeding clowns, and it shows in the level of care they provide - feeding the fry every 2-3 hours. If you're up for the challenge, good luck to you, but if this is your first marine tank, I'm not sure I'd recommend it. I've only had marine for about 5 months now, and I still consider myself a beginner.

If you do manage to get a clownfish pair to breed, chances are they'll be eaten by the other fish in a community tank, so that's a non-starter.

Once you've figured out what you want from this tank - enjoyment or a business - you can start thinking about what fish you want. It's easy to get caught up in wanting every fish in the ocean, but to really enjoy watching them, they need to be happy in their aquarium.
