Breeding pair of clowns? Could it be increased aggression from a newly laid clutch and a hungry angel picking too close to the patch?

 

[brian91]

I have no clue if there breeding but the just started hosting anemone like 2 weeks ago

How big the emperor? Rarely a clown can beat up a healthy emperor. I wouldn’t worry about it.

 

[brian91]

6 inches long he’s in the mist of transitioning to a adult

 

[brian91]

This him

 

[this is me]

Lol. I wouldn’t worry about it!

 

[brian91]

His fin is missing some

 

[this is me]

That’s okay.

A. Clown isn’t going to beat up on an emporer. It’s gotta be something else unless you are grossly under feeding.

What type of clowns? I had a pair of maroons that were super aggressive

 

[Mixed Reefer]

How bigs the tank? Clowns are protecting there home. Is there enough space? It’s usually the emperor that rules the aqua scape. When my emperor is disputing, he grunts! Look it up. I had no idea that was a thing. Anyway I think it would ll work out for you. Let them adjust and claim space

This is a 5 year old thread just a heads up.
