Tank Raised Clowns

[Mr.September15]

Is it true that tank raised clowns are less agressive?

 

[steelhealr]

I believe so, but, don't expect that to undo nature and instinct. SH

 

[Mr.September15]

I was thinking of trading my more agressive clown for a tank raised clown.

 

[Triggerobsessed]

I hav had a tank bred percula clown. While he was less agressive, he did not display the wonderful colors my wild caught percula did.

the other thing is they tend not to host anything. i just got a couple of tank bred clowns, as i don't want a nenny i forked out for a mahhosiv todie and a euphillia just incase they wanted somewhere......WRONG!

they don't even hang out together very much, i think they are species confussed, they spend all day swimming with my chromis

I just bought two tank raised clown and they seem to hang out together. They don't swim much they kinda stay in the corner, but they are really brand new to the tank. time will tell.

wild clowns will host in anything but captive bred clowns tend not to host which is a shame but they are easier to look after then wild ones

Have we got any solid evidence that this is correct ?

I have only seen reports from hobbyists stating this.

It would be interesting to see a full scientific report making the results known.

So it has to be confirmed by some authority before it becomes true....?
