i know the general rule of thumb is "dont do it".... that said...
have a tank (roughly 375g - lets call it a reverse corner tank - flat back to the wall with the ^ facing out into the room) that has a pair of established Sebae clowns in it. They seem to be tolerant of the other members of the tank - including very mild mannered stuff like red firefish - but i'm wondering what the chances are of mixing in a pair of Occy's into the system?
i know its always a risk, especially if the more dominate species has been established for a while (this pair has been there for 4+ years now) but looking to add a splash of color and personality in, and of course a good pair of occy's can totally fill that niche.
If this were a more aggressive species like a fire, tomato's or GSM's i wouldn't even be considering it, but if memory serves correctly the Sebae's are usually right in the middle of the clown family as far as typical aggression goes.
there's lots of rock structure in the tank, and the sebae's have claimed the front point of the reef as their little spot.
is there a snowball's chance in **** that this will work? or am i asking for guarantee'd drama attempting it?
