    She actually removed the parents from the tank. I followed that thread for awhile as I wanted to try two types of ocellaris(regular and the black & white) in my 180g. After reading alot of posts though I ended up deciding against it even though I have alot of anemones and space; the problem is once they start spawning clownfish become very territorial. So you may be able to keep them successfully a year or two but when they reach spawning point odds are 2 pair will quickly become 1. My clowns(perculas) chase away tangs over 10x their size and they havent even started to spawn. I would suggest reading up a couple of the books previously mentioned I think "Clownfishes" by Joyce might even be in our library but dont hold me to that. lol

    And asking advice now is a great idea! I usually will do the same especially if its a species I have not kept before. For example- my anthias post on here.
