Yeah, I'd feel better putting the larger clowns in bigger tanks. I was surprised when I read that. http://www.fishtalpropagations.com/#!home/mainPage "Making captive breeding easier."   #4 t2rev Total Posts : 53 Scores: 0 Reward points : 284 Joined: 10/4/2011 Location: Blandford, Dorset, GB Status: offline MBI: 0 Pnts MBI Site: Marinefish-uk.co.uk Re:tomato clown tank size Tuesday, May 1, 2012 12:32 PM (permalink) 0 both my tomato pairs (frenatus & melanopus) are in 65Litre 24 by 12 by 15high. both happily laying eggs for the past 3 years on there respective flower pots, and biting my hand during tank maintainence. I have been tempted to swap them into smaller 12 by 15wide by 18high cubish tanks.   #5 Barelycuda Total Posts : 186 Scores: 2 Reward points : 829 Joined: 3/20/2010 Location: Vancouver, WA, US Status: offline MBI Site: Marine Breeding Initiative (MBI) Re:tomato clown tank size Tuesday, May 1, 2012 2:31 PM (permalink) 0 I had a very large pair spawning in a 10 gallon tank for over 3 years.  I am sure they would be happier in a 20g but they can be done in smaller.     #6 Online Bookmarks Sharing: Facebook Digg Google del.icio.us StumbleUpon
