The male (the one on the bottom) is about 14 in. and the female is about 11 in.

I had a saltw.a.t.e.r (I don't know why the language filter catches that) tank a few years ago. I hope to have a reef tank sometime in the future. There is nothing more beautiful than a saltw.a.t.e.r tank.

yeah.....I know our clowns are mated, our first set was too similar in size and refused to mate so we had to get a smaller one. They are one species that determines its sex after they have mated, they are strange!

I would love to have a reef tank someday, what other special equipment is needed to facilitate the reef?........filter, light, etc.....?

I have a Koi pond but not sure how many are in it cause they keep multiplying, some where around 30 fish from 2'' to 12''.

When I lived is s.fla we used to go fishing out off 27 on the edge of the glades and catch oscars all day long. They fight like crazy and are allot of fun. Some folks used to eat'em but we always did catch n release.
