This is a test setup using my old ten gallon ten. It is intended to see what happens if not only is there more than two clownfish (i.e. not recommended), but a mix too (again, not currently recommended), of juvenile clownfish growing up together. Current stocking Previous stocking Amphiprion melanopus (cinnamon clownfish), x1, named Cinnabon (deceased due to heater failure) Amphiprion frenatus (tomato clownfish), x1, named Orange (deceased due to heater failure) Amphiprion clarkii (clarkii clownfish), x1, named Yellow (deceased due to heater failure) Amphiprion ocellaris (ocellaris clownfish), x1, named Nemo #1, Nemo #2, and Nemo #3 (deceased due to being weak)

Just a fyi, 'rubbish bin' aquariums are defined as those that not only have just a random mix of live stock, but also is usually the target for stocking when no other better option is available, and this can be just where all manners of different live stock is added without regard for parameters, compatibility, etc. This is my first true 'rubbish bin' aquarium. I will constantly update this first post until the time in which the setup is truly determined to have ended being a 'rubbish bin' aquarium. Current stocking Rheoheros lentiginosus (Freckled Cichlid), x6 African cichlids, x4 Clown loach, x1 Amatitlania nigrofasciata (Convict Cichlid), x1 Amatitlania nanolutea, x1 Herichthys carpintis (Green Texas Cichlid), x2 Previous stocking Tricolor platy, x8 (deceased, reason unknown) Yellow guppy, x1 (deceased, reason unknown, might be overfed) Rheoheros lentiginosus (Freckled Cichlid), x2 (deceased, one always responded badly to water changes, another died of unknown causes)
