Tomato clowns are one of my favorites, however due to the size restrictions on tanks in my residence hall I haven't had a pair. They're on my list for when I've got a decent place of my own and can...

It has to do, inpart, to the genes being bent out of shape a little bit by the inbreeding. Also, these traits are very rarely seen in wild counterparts (I've never seen it, but that doesn't mean it...

Perhaps...they also tend to be much more easily startled than other clowns, so it's a possibility that they injure their eyes darting around the tank after being frightened.

Right...that's exactly the problem. You'll have too many clowns in your tank, within a short time aggressions will become fatal to one or more clownfish.

JUST BE PATIENT.

Remove the largest fish to another tank. You should never keep more than two clownfish in the same tank, especially if it's smaller than 300 gallons.
