Default Pic....

Here is a pic of my tank....

The emerald and pistol are not visible.... water has been stable, Ph drops down sometimes to 7.8'ish and I need a buffer to keep it up. Usually once a week I top up, change out water 10% and correct the Ph. Nothing otherwise as far as I can tell is a problem. I feed 1/2 a cube of brine shrimp a day & sometimes toss in 4-5 1mm sinking pelets (New Life Spectrum-Community Fish formula).

I still ponder adding :

Coral for the clown to host
sexy shrimp

?? maybe a royal gramma - might be too much though..... instead possibly a feather duster..... its a consolation prize.

Clowns are pretty finicky about what they host. Mine love frogspawn. They both swim in it during the day when it's fully extended and swim in between the heads at night when it's closed up. Mine also like GSP and will swim through it or literally lay down on it at times. Luck of the draw I guess. No harm in trying. If it doesn't work and you're not keen on the coral, it's not something pet stores won't take.

I have a pair of clowns in my 10 gal....I put a torch, a hammer and a frogspawn in for them to choose from and they instantly went for the frogspawn.
As for your stocking...I would probably go for another clown rather than the royal. What kind of clown do you have?
