Maroon clownfish who has experience
Quick question Reef Central who has experience with maroon clownfish I have a pair so I thought one's more orange and the other ones more maroon not compatible?? Or maybe she's getting one is getting lighter because of stress?

If they are not compatible, it is not due to color. How old are they?
If they are both female or both male, you may have a problem brewing. And they are an aggressive species to begin with.

I kept my maroon in a mixed reef for about 10 years before it went on a murder spree and killed my dwarf lion, marine betta, royal gramma, CBS, all my CUC, and nearly my potters angel in the span of a weekend. Unless you are housing your maroons in a VERY large tank, I would reconsider keeping them. Mine was in a 60 cube with plenty of rock work.

Yeah well when I got home after work he had killed my fish! I think I'll take him back to the local fish store and get something else. I hate to lose fish! They are just plain mean.........
