Hi Everyone
Just joined the site after reading some articles on clowns.
We have had our comunity tank just over 14 months now and absolutley love the characters we have in there. The clowns are such fun to watch and we have one inparticular who i am extremely fond of, Little Fella. He is still very small but palled up with a young shark, they would play and chase through the day then sleep together in the same den at night. We had read that they like to live in a family so we bought five more. He soon forgot about the shark They are adorable. I wish we saw more of the clowns but my hubby has planted the tank quite well and given them lots of hiding places and they certainly use them.
I will find my way around the site and hopefully post some pics.

Looks nice but the pic is very small. Can you make it larger?
Re: New Member
Hi, just tried to make the image larger but it is not clear. I transfered a photo of a couple of clowns but on preview their noses were chopped off which doest not look like the original. Will have another atempt later today at some point.

Re: New Member
The nose isn't cropped exactly. On my browser if I right click I get an option which says "view image". This opens the picture out properly.

Re: New Member
Yes, that will do.
Very nice! I've never seen a tank set up as a window seat.

Thank you. We love it, and hopefully the residents do too, they look as if they do anyway.

Nice clowns! & a very interesting tank set up, window seat, who knew? I sure didn't, is it hard to do water changes?
Re: New Member
Its a slow syphon buts it works absolutely fine. We didnt want a small tank, but we didnt have a suitable area to put one elsewhere - it was one of those moments when you wished (at the time) you hadnt said anything - I said to my oh, the only place big enough to put a decent size tank (trying to put him off getting one) is in the window bay, and you would have to make a window seat around it to hide it
His response - What a great idea ive got plenty of timber outside
Anyhow i am so pleased we have it.
The clowns are having a little chase around just now, the speed they swim is unbelievable, they are such fun.
Thank you for your comments everyone.

Gorgeous clowns you have too Ours are so small i cannot imagine them at that size. At least with the size of our tank and with them all being just over 1yr old we should have them comfortably for years to come.
