That's very nice. How big is he and how well does he interact with other fish?

Age of Aquariums in signal hill had a pair for sale at Reef-a-palooza this past October. I asked them if they will be getting more, they said they can special order some for anyone who puts in a small deposit. Went for $150, $250 for a pair.

doesnt seem to mess with anyone unless they come near the nem. id say its around 2 inches maybe a tad less. so its still got a bit of growing to do. stunning fish to watch in person, which makes me want to keep her now...specially with the gold starting to come in.

Good to hear, but why did you want to sell it in the first place and what is the screen behind the clown for?

i had him in a nano but it was over run by aptasia so i broke it down and restarted it with new rock. its been running 2 months now so i was gonna put him back in there but if the right price comes along i can part with him. that screen was there to cover the overflow on that breeder box when i had baby bangaii cardinal that kept going into the the display tank .

What do you have? The ones from LA are only .75" to 1.75".
They vary from 1-3 inches.
2x Red Ruby Dragonet
Yellow Tang
Flaming Angel
2x Yellow Tail Damsel
Six Line Wrasse
Pink Spot Goby
2x O. Clownfish
Blue Green Chromis

Maroon will punk them later down the road

Yeah, I see your predicament, especially with the O. Clowns.

Quit thinking about it and just get it Scott. You can always set up ANOTHER tank if he becomes an arshole. ;)
Hahaha Cody, I can't give up my new yr resolution 3 days into the new year. I have until Thursday afternoon to order, maybe you can reconsider and put a bad-arse clown in your tank.

Tempting but I've had my female naked clown Streaker for like 6 years and don't want to risk it haha so you will have to be the guinea pig. Besides my extra cash this time around is going towards a xf130 gyre and a flipper max... they are going to take all of my reefing allowance.

New Years resolutions are meant to be broken right?

my gold nugget didnt punk anyone, i had a small chromis and blue damsel in there. kept to her self in the nem really. only would chase them away from her BTA. with clowns its another story, they do scuffle a lot haha so thats not a good idea. im thinking im gonna keep her after all since she seems to be docile compared to other peoples experience with maroons lol

Very envious of your GN clowns. Good luck and let us know her progress from time to time. It seems like you are the only one on this forum who has this rare clown.

Thanks I will keep it updated, I'll probably put her back in her tank again and enjoy her. The yellow has really been starting to become more and more present as weeks go by aswell.
