Interesting Clown Fish Species Information and Facts
Clown Fish make an ideal Marine fish for the beginner as they are quite hardy. It is advisable to keep a single pair of clowns in your aquarium as one pair will strive to become dominant and may even try to kill the other fish. Don't add different species or they will fight! Clown fish are a very easy fish to keep in your aquarium but it is recommended that you add an anemone to the tank in order to allow the fish to behave as they do in their natural environment. They are immune to the stinging ability of Sea Anemones and this is where they spend a lot of their time and indeed where they lay their eggs.
