Bring out the Clowns

You wouldn’t think it would be so hard to find a pair of clown fish.   Really, and I am not picky.  Ocellaris , Percula, Tomato … I just wanted a pair. Finally I found one that looked like it might be a winner. A small pair pair of false Percula.

I got em home, did a 30 minute float, then a 30 minute drip and then sent them on their way. Everything seemed to be going good, but when I got up the next morning the larger of the pair was belly up pressed against the overflow :(

Not sure what happened, but shortly after I got the typical nitrate spike and immediately countered with a round of Algone pouches. The smaller of the two was pretty timid for a week or so, but now he is feeling much better and even starting to snuggle up to the RBTA a little bit. Here are some pics of the process

About Clinton

Born and raised shralpin the steep and deep up in Bozeman America, now on the sunny surfside in Southern Californaia. Workin hard and playin harder that's a mantra to live by in my book. All that aside, I'm a laid back, fun lovin, adventurous guy. Really not a fan of people who pretend to be something they aren't. I'm more the kind of guy that thinks that laughter is the best medicine, and life is far too short to waste. There's an adventure out there waiting, all you have to do is get off the couch, find something you are passionate about and get after it!
