Huge Midas Blenny/New Picasso

[jcolon2]

I just acclimated the xlrg midas blenny that I purchased from Will. Wow, the fish is gigantic. It makes the other midas blenny I had look tiny. I also have a picasso clown now and I really like it. I wish the design was a bit funkier and didn't resemble a regular ocellaris so much, however; I heard their patterns change over time : ) I also heard that his color will become more orange like my current ocellaris (which is an extremely bright orange) as I continue to feed it different types of foods. My current ocellaris is already showing his dominance over the picasso clown, however; the picasso clown is too young to be phased. He is swimming around stress-free as my other clown circles him and does that weird seizure gesture with its body lol. I fed all my mysis upon introducing the new fish to the tank. The picasso ate a lot, however; the midas blenny did not eat (but midas blennies tend to be very stressed during acclimation).

I always make that mistake. I do get confused when it comes to Picassos. can they mate with an ocellaris (either way I am keeping him my tank : ) )?

It sure is possible if one of the clowns is alot smaller than the other

I understand the breeding of clowns. The dominant clown (the larger clown) is the female and the smaller clown is the male. But can a picasso mate with an ocellaris? I assume you are stating that they can indeed mate once my picasso reaches sexual maturity? The picasso is much smaller than my ocellaris.

Percula and ocellaris are fine together. The difference is too subtle for them to notice I suppose. I have seen this pair many times. A dominant female will come out and they will become a pair.
