It's recommended to add multiple clownfish to the aquarium at the same time to prevent aggression, since two female clownfish will not coexist in the same aquarium.

They are sexually dimorphic meaning the males and females have differing characteristics. Females are adorned with a gorgeous cream and yellow coloration while males have a striking set of black barring along their entire body. All Genicanthus Angelfish are born female.

The most reliable way to form a pair or trio in captivity is to start with juveniles or females, allowing the group to establish naturally. Over time, the dominant fish becomes male and the remaining individuals stay female. Introducing fish at the same time and providing ample swimming space and visual breaks all help reduce initial aggression.
