i would like ocellaris clowns. would they be
ok as a pair? you mentioned in an earlier reponse
that they should be small. how small?

Yes, they would be good. Just don't mix one species
of clown with another. Yes two ocellaris will be
good. Most of what you see for sale are small
enough. The reason that you want two small ones is
because they are all males at a young age. If you
get two, one will grow faster than the other, and it
will become a female, and boss the mail around, but
it will be a stable arangement. Having two females
(larger ones) is not a good pair.

Aroon, if you like clownfish and really want to read about
their interesting behaviour and unusual pairing process
borrow a very good book about them from the public library
or get your copy at Amazon.com:
http://www.amazon.com/Clownfishes-Jo...dp/1890087041/
I have my copy and I love this book. Everything you want
to know about clownfish is there in very plain English :-)

Preferable get the book BEFORE you start buying your fish.
You will make better choices this way...
