I would like to know if i could mix a tomato clown and a Ocellaris Clownfish in the same tank. 40g breeder 60lbs of live rock. i also would like to know if a coral beauty could be in the same tank as an sunrise dottyback. Thanks for any info.

It's a HUGE gamble probably not one you'll like the outcome to. Both clowns are "Damsel" and as such normally wont like other Clown-like fish. Occasionally someone may have luck but more often than not in the long run something goes wrong in the grouping.

I'm afraid to say I'm gonna give the same final answer on the other two. Basically you're adding all "Semi-Aggressive" fish (Ocellaris is usually considered PEACEFUL except to other Damselfish) into a smallish tank.

Coral Beauty Angelfish
(Centropyge bispinosa)
QUICK STATS
Minimum Tank Size: 30 gallons
Care Level: Easy
Temperament: Semi-aggressive

then

Purple Pseudochromis - Magenta Dottyback or Purple Dottyback -
(Pseudochromis porphyreus)
QUICK STATS
Minimum Tank Size: 30 gallons
Care Level: Easy
Temperament: Semi-aggressive

also

Tomato Clownfish
(Amphiprion frenatus)
QUICK STATS
Minimum Tank Size: 30 gallons
Care Level: Easy
Temperament: Semi-aggressive
