Hi, have now got 1 black and white clown in our tank!!! how long before he can have a friend? and if so can anyone recommend some compatible friends for him?

Thanks

Have to agree with Dal, 99.9% of the time two clowns are much happier than one and it`s also great to watch their behaviour

Have to agree. I have kept a sngle Clown in the past, but the pair of Maroons I keep now seem more "content". Might be just my perception though.

Thats a good question! Don't see why not? You might get some hybrids in the future:D
I think it has been done before as you see clowns like this
