@18TSTAR : All clownfish start out genderless. They are hermaphrodites. The dominant one in a territory turns female, the 2nd in command turns male, the rest stay neuter. If a maroon clown lives alone, and is that large, it is the dominant one in the territory and is female, so thus yours is female. Buy a smaller juvenile one that is half her size and lighter colored, and it will be either male, or genderless. Being in her presence will make it become male if it isn't already.
im probably gettin just 1 white stripe maroon for my 37gal, i dont want a pair cus ive heard they can be more aggressive when paired. nice beautiful fish btw.
Why do they go so dark I went to this place and they had 2 adult maroon clowns and they were bluey green coloured with gold stripes yuk that's what put me off them =s
this is my favorite fish he's the boss of my tank and has survived many other fish dying as well as the constant bullying from a niger triggerfish which I believe only made him stronger.
depending on your lighting the stripes on this fish can look so beautiful. i have a 3 in atm im gonna try to pair up her with a small mail.

Get a young one. They all start s males.
Pairing Maroon's is difficult. They are very aggressive. Have a place to put your juvenile if she rejects him.
