    A less nervous algae eater instead of tangs?

    So I have gone through a lot of transitions in my reef tank since setting it up a couple of years ago. I am finding that I am drawn really to fish more than corals. I am fascinated by the captive bred scribbled angels and other on the market. I have always kept a species of bristle tooth...

    Does a skunk clownfish know it’s a clown?

    Does a skunk clownfish know it’s a clown? Does a skunk clownfish know it’s a clown? Since the morphology of skunk clowns is so different than other clowns, can you mix skunks with other clowns without aggression?
