    I bought a marron clown and a o.clown a year and a half ago. They were the same size. the marron is now over double the sizeof the o.clown. the o.clown is misbarred. They have always slept in the same spot, but first thing in the morning the marron would start to bully, the o.clown would hide. Now the behavior has changed she will bully but he turns on his side and shakes she then leaves him alone for awhile. they even swim and feed together at times. Are they becomeing a pair?? Is this even Possible??:confused: I know marron is spelled wrong, but this thing thread doesnt have spell check, and you know what I mean. so thanks in advance for any info you can give.

    Maroon.

    The ocellaris is showing submission to the maroon. They won't be a pair, though.

    Its possible - search for "coco clown" or something like that - there was someone that crossed them.

    More than likely, no. But its certainly possible, albeit rare.

    I think it's possible for them to pair although unlikely. He is just showing submission to the maroon. Frogs and toads sometimes but rarely mix though so who knows what could happen.

    Also, I assume you are using internet explorer. Download google chrome or at least firefox. They're faster, have a built in spell check, and are much more secure. IE has a nice little gateway for viruses.
