Lol. First off,its a nice tank. However, I dont know where people get the idea that most clownfish are not captive bred. I would say that a good 80 plus percent of clownfish are captive bred. I have personal exp. breeding and buying clownfish. Almost every single sold clownfish(minus the black market) are Aquacultured.
actually 99% of clown fishes that you get from petstores are not wild because they are so easy to breed. Plus fishes have a 5 second memory bank so i dont think they mind as long as they are well fed and taken care of.

lol you make up your own facts?
Less than 10% of pet store clowns are captive bred and no fish do not have a 5 second memory they in fact ESP marine fish have a pretty good memory. They use objects to find their way back to their area out in the reef. if you want to justify cruel tanks like nano tanks than so be it but stop with the bogus BS of 99% of clowns are CB because the majority are not. Not to mention most nano tanks kleep other than just clowns.
That's a bit of a sweeping statement, a laughable one at best. Do you have any facts to back up your claims? Claiming that less than 10% of Clownfish are captive bred is an arrogant assumption. Over here in the UK almost all Clownfish are captive bred, largely by a company called TMC.
what is your ocellaris clownfish hosting in? are does ocellaris clownfish tank raised or wild cought? which one you prefer tank raised ocellaris clownfish or wild cought?

You can keep a Hippo in a 15 foot cage its whole life but that doesnt mean its happy and its right . If you dove in the ocean which is obvious you have not you would know reef marine fish are teritorial fish and need space not be cramped with other fish.
Majority of the clownfish sold at pet stores are aquacultured, so relax and research your shit idiot.

5 second memory.... then how do they remember that they have a mate or that they have to care for their spawn? Come on humanity, get educated.

Nano tanks under 30 gallon tanks should be called "cruelty tanks"

have you seen the apartment sizes in NYC?....... what would u call that?

Difference is these fish are taken out of the wild to live in nano tanks. The people in NY have the ability not to live there if they opt not to.

*there is no such thing as overstocking, as long as your filtration method can handle the bioload...or in lamin terms: suck it easy!

13G is really the absolute, complete minimum for sqeezing in a pair of clowns, with the cardinal in there too it seems overstocked.
But still, nice tank! The aquascaping is very well done!
