Clownfish question

[dadat1968]

I have 1 2" true percula clownfish and planning to add 2 small ones in a 28 gallon tank. Do you thing thats a good idea?

The big one will pick on the smaller ones. You can try taking out the big one and putting the smaller ones in first for a few days. Then add the larger one. Good luck

add the smallest fish you can get

Yes i will be adding 2 small ones .. Because i already ordered 2 new true percs because one of my friends have 3 too.. 2 males 1 female and they all get along

They might or might not, my friend had a false perc, and he bought a black clown and a wild caught clown. The black clown hooked up with the wild caught and they both picked on the false perc even though he was a bit larger. I myself had a tiny clown, so I added a larger one, they chased each other for a hour and then the larger one was dominant and the small one accepted that and they stopped fighting.

You can always try it, but from everything I've read over the past year since being in the hobby it is not recommended at all. More than 2 clownfish in a tank (unless you have a huge tank where they won't notice eachother) is asking for a fight/dead fish. This is only my opinion. I'm not trying to knock your idea or anything but I've come across it many many times before. Best of luck, with whatever your decision may be though!
