    Adding more clownfish???

    I just added 4 true percula clownfish to my 180 gallon fish only aquarium. I really enjoy my new addition and was thinking about adding a few more. My question is, will they get along or is it a bad idea to introduce them since the others are now established?

    I am in the process of setting up a 110g with 35g sump mixed reef, I was under the impression that on 2 perculars could be kept, is that not the case?

    They have to be of the same genus. You can't mix the Clarki with a Tomato or OC. But of the same, like 2 black and white, 2 oc, yes, those will not fight with each other. You can put all those Clowns in the same tank. So it all depends on what Clown Fish you plan on keeping. Keeping True Percs together you can do. Tomato and Clarki are just flat out mean, and those I would not advise to keep together. But there are some who can keep several of them in a larger system.
