Big clownfish in nano tanks

[pkr210]

Hey guys, I have seen mixed opinions on this topic but I feel that its based on a lot of factors, I currently have a pair of 3.5 inch soloman clarkis in a 13.5 with a couple bubble tip anenomes. These are the only stocking. The pair has hosted the anenomes but they don't go far away from the anenome. My question is since anenomes are hosting the clownfish would a big tank really be needed if they only stay in that one spot? I plan to upgrade but this is just a curious question.

The smaller the tank the greater the chances of a parameter spike or crash. That's especially true regarding a marine setup.

Not really, you an keep a pair in a 10g. Bigger is better though.

Anemones are hardy but sometimes they do not tolerate parameter spikes well.
