Adding another pair of clowns

[swpassion]

Hi all,
I have to take down my 26 bowfront, it has been infested with bubble algae and aptasia anenomes that have completely taken over the tank. I have 2 gold banded maroon clowns in there and I need to move them to my 210 mixed reef tank, BUT I already have a perc. clowns in the 210. The 210 has almost 300 lbs of LR so there are lots of hiding places but do you think they clowns will have issues with each other?????

I wouldnt. I have kept a lot of different clowns and have kept a 210. It might be OK for a little while but usually ends badly.

My maroons and naked o's get along fine. I dont know if the nakeds are even clowns to the maroons.

it's a coin flip, i've had 5 clownfish in the same tank together and they were fine for the most part, they would get aggresive towards each other once in a while.

I wouldn't do it. It may work for a while, but the odds are good that once of the of the pairs starts to spawn they will become a lot more aggressive.

Well, you could try it. As long as you have somewhere else ready to put one of the pairs in case they fight.
