Adding clownfish pair at different times

Hello everybody,
I was just wondering if it is ok to add a clownfish to a tank and then another clownfish at a later time? I have a 120 gallon by the way and it will be a FOWLR. The reason I ask is because a very reputable LFS near me currently has only one established already quarantined ocellaris clownfish in stock but will be getting a new shipment later in the day. I could get the established one now and then the other one later after it has been quarantined in the store. Or I could like the lady in the store said risk it and buy the established one along with one from the new shipment at the same time but I don't really want to do that.
 
Personally I'd wait and then pick out a pair that is together in the new shipment unless the one they have is exceptional.

Never trust an LFS to quarantine a fish, do it yourself after you get them. Also want to worm them by Formalin dip first, then two rounds of PraziPro

+1 especially if they are wild caught. I use the same protocol -- formalin and PraziPro.
