clownfish

[andy n amz]

me and the other half both like clownfish our marine tank is almost ready for the first fishes problem is we like different types of clown and we keep getting conflictint advise we have been told as long as the are tiny and added at same time it should be ok but others have said only to have 1 sort of clown ????????

Clowns are very territorial, and will fight for their territory, I would avoid keeping more than one type of clown together, yes it could and has worked, but it could also go wrong and you could loose fish.

I would honestly suggest just getting percs (either orange or black) if this is your first marine tank, they are great fish and are very hardy too, they are lovely fish I have a pair and they are always out and about

Hope this helps

there are a couple of types of clown that can easlily be kept together, however you really need to know what you are doing first. Generally black and orange percs could be kept together. Maroons on the other hand are hard enough to keep with themselves let alone with another type of clown. Pick the kind you like the most, then down the line, after you have gained plenty of experience, if you still want more than one type maybe think about it then. It's possible just not recommended.
