RLTW 180 Gallon Mixed Reef Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?" And I said, "Here am I. Send me!" Isaiah 6:8

Since you have 3 together wouldn't that make the social structure a trio? it's cool that the sub-male is so defenssive.

honestly I'm new to this, but if that's the case wouldn't it be a quad? The black is an ocellaris and can breed with them. Or would you just specifically go by color?

I didn't see the black O? Regardless, the fact that the third ocellaris is being tolerated at all is really cool.

really? It doesn't happen much?
They've been together for well over a year. I saw last night that the third one was even around the eggs. It didn't fan them or anything, but it didn't get ran off either.

That is cool. I went to a wholesaler picking up some coral last month and there was a trio of clarkiis defending their nesting site. I went to point out a sinularia and all three swam after my finger right away.

all the eggs were gone when I got home from work. They were there at lunch. I guess the parents cleaned them of. The female is fat again already though.
