Where buy Mated clownfish?

George771177 · 06-02-2008, 02:18 PM

Anyone know of any online stores or people selling mated clownfish. I would like to try my hand at mating and raising tank breed clownfish. I have a pair of GSM clowns but have been unsuccessful in themm even spawning. The GSM have been in my tank for 3 years now and i bought them as a pair, but they dont seem to want to lay eggs. Exhibit all of the clownfish spawning habit and are diffinettly old enough to spawn, but no eggs.

I understand all clowns are male except for the dominant female, and if that one dies, then the next dominant male will change sex to be the dominant female.

I'm not 100% sure, but given that logic, wouldn't 2 males put together will eventually mate as one will turn female?

yeah but if you put 2 dominant males together the general consensus is one dies. you need a pushover male to put in with a dominant male. the dominant male will turn to a female and eventually pair
i also have a mated pair of tomato clowns and ritteri anemone $125 plus shipping for all 3
