    Default yellow stripe maroon clownfish

    Can you have a mated pair of yellow maroon clownfish? I have heard both yes and no...Anyone have personal experience with these beautiful creatures?

    Yes I had a pair of gold stripe maroon clowns for a few years. Best set of fish I ever had. Very hardy.

    Yes they were a mated pair. I never had a problem with them messing with any other fish. They kept to their one spot of the tank and did not venture far from it.

    If possible, try finding a mated pair already. Also, if you end up with a set of gold stripes, do not add any other type of clown fish to your tank. They like to fight each other to the death.

    I have a mated pair. Remember they're aggressive, and wouldnt want to put any peaceful species. Well at least my female is. Sounds like my wife J/K

    They're beautiful fish, but watch out! At the lfs I used to work at we had a pair of GSMs in a 400 gallon tank, and the female would attack you no matter if you were working anywhere near her anemone. You don't think about the fact that these guys have sharp little teeth until one of them lights into you like a firecracker...
