i've seen pictures of them before, they are beautiful fish,
maybe I'll get just one of those small red sea tanks

Oh yes they are!!! :lol:

And the guys are right, you're not helping, neither are the red sea tanks, but it has to be done at some stage. :?

I'd love to see some pics of the blue striped ones, can you keep trying Ben please? :D

ben, they are very cute fish. i tried to keep marine before but one day they all died within 24 hrs. i had an asfur angel there i loved it but they seem to be infected kept rubbing themselves non stop and all died in the same day. since then i back off from salt water.

I also have a pair of Ocellaris clowns, there are a few small differences but the top pics are Perc's.

black marking on true percs should be easy to differentiate from ocellaris and the top pic looks like ocellaris

Rob,

They take a few days before they even touch the anemone sometimes. So don't stress if they are not in it alot if they are only new.

Well the anemone was introduced last week and the clowns have been in there for 3 weeks. They don't even know it exists! :lol:

i saw one of the RSMs (henceforth RSM = Red Sea Max) at Xtreme and it looked very cool. maybe i need one for a clown pair, and just maybe, another for some other fish i liked, or maybe all in one 4 X 2 :?
Ah to be able to see all those nice bright colours, without drugs, is very tempting :lol: :lol:

Xtrene have one set up, as do majestic just up the road. They are a very neat little unit and as long as the ASA sale holds out I'll be getting one soon.

Xtreme, if you're listening, what do you think of the chiller you're currently running on your RSM, and how is it at holding the temp?

Also, what are you using the eheim HOB filter on it for?
