my clowns got a divorce i guess...

[D.J.]

im guessing they dont like each other any more.....they been chasing each other for a week or two now and last night the biggest(which i was told was female) tried to commit suicide.....

went to feed them and couldnt find but one didnt think much about it since they been hidin in the caves and stuff lately....

well for some reason i climbed under the tank and low and behold there she was laying on the floor......

she was alil dry and barely moved when i picked her up....

put her in the net and stuck her in the tank water and an hour later she was back to normal.....

i woulda been alil T-ed off if she woulda died,,,,

guess now my 30g has to go back up for one of the clowns.....and to be a nano.....

Wow...don't know what to say! Best of luck and self education!!!!

Maybe playing hard to get!Good luck!

That happened to me once too when my clowns started to fight with eachother. And it happened without cause. Weirdest thing. I hope that your female will be okay.

im setting up a 30g nano today.....i will pull one out to put into that tank once its ready.....

heck just leave them together they should only kill each other if there 2 different kinds. I had a true and flase live together for a year and a half. Then I put in another one and one of the old ones was killed off that night if memory serves me right. Clowns are like damsels they are a tough fish. Could it be that one just jumped?

[D.J.]

it did jump outa the tank.....but not sure why....never done it before and hasnt done it since...

i noticed today that they are gaurding a lil cave on one of the rocks and for the past 2 days have been belly to belly "dancing" together...

any chance they are mating???

[Afish4u]

it might be one trying to set to domance. or maybe that. Mine use to do that all the time. Never breed though. Chuck was able to have his breed.

would be pretty cool if they did.....we'll see how things go with them.....if they keep it up all the way till the 30g is ready ill just seperate them....
