Maroon clowns are very agressive. The larger female should be in the tank first then a much smaller male can be added. A smaller male will pose no threat and cowar immediately, and thus will most likely be spared a brutal death inflicted by the female. Rearing clownfish is realitively easy but demands a lot of time for culturing rotifers, endless water changes, and setting up grow out tanks. I've lost many batches when first starting out. By trying different things and logging everyone of them,I've gotten to a point of 99% survival rate from eggs to adult. I'm also breeding mandarins which is proving to be a little trickier. From what I understand, no one in this country has done it, so who do I ask for help? Anyway I have a few hundred babies at this point and they're almost big enough (at 5 weeks old) to start feeding rotifers. Well good luck and I will be more than happy to answer any questions you may have.
