Question Regarding Clown Fish
Is it possable to keep several types of clown fish in the same tank? i have thought about keeping 6 diffrent types of clown fish togeather in the same tank, im assuming that since they are friendly fish they will all get along. am i correct or stray away from this idea?
I currently have a percula and a saddleback in the same tank and they get along great but would like to add a cinnaman, tomato, Black & White Percula as well... any thoughs?

i would assume if its a big enough tank ,then i would try it myself.. but other than that i think theyr would star fighting over their territory.

I don't think so... and some clowns get bigger than others (e.g. tomato clowns) and all of them can get pretty territorial.

Whoever told you that clownfish are "friendly", or "easy going" fish should have their head examined( I should let you come and observe my Clark's anemonefish.)
 Most are extremely territorial and will defend it to the bitter end, they are demselfish after all...
