So I want to get a small all in one tank to move my maroon clownfish pair and their anemones. The anemones keep stretching bigger and bigger and so I would like to just have a small tank for them and the clown pair.
So what is the smallest I can get away with?? The clowns rarely move from their anemones only to eat:)

Nevermind:) If I get too annoyed I will just sell the maroons and anemones.

I would say 20 gallon, but they would be better in a 29. And that is if you can keep the water happy.

i guess any size would be great, if you can manage the adequate filtration needed. I seen small tank with huge sumps. kinda beats the point of having small tanks in the first place
