Bulk fish purchase

Anyone know of a person breeding or a business that sells clownfish in bulk. Looking for 20+.

Try pming D-Nak. I know he used to breed clowns, but I'm not sure if he's still doing it. He has the nicest onyx clowns, and really knows his stuff. Plus, super nice guy. If you're in Hayward, I believe he's practically local to you.

Scary. Do you eat clownfish? What do you intend to do with them?

Hmmm, great question. I’ve been looking at about 10 to do the same thing. Been wanting to swap out the 3 I have in there now.

Has anyone got this to work long term? In my experience they pair up and the pairs fight.

First time I tried, my lfs sold me 12 orange and 12 black and said it would be fine. An orange and black paired up, they stressed and killed the rest. I’m giving it one more try with all the same clutch and color.

I was able to find this thread, remembered it vaguely from a few years back, she had several years of success with a harem tank. I did not read it just now to refresh my memory on how it all turned out.

I tried this and the dominant one paired up with the existing female, killed off the rest
