Can you mix (Amphiprion polymnus) with other clowns?

[Cliving1]

Just curious as I have one Amphiprion polymnus at the moment. Want another one, but curious about possibilities.

Anyone?

I am not a fan of cross anemone species. Polymnus get very big and very aggressive. If you put another species with him, I would not get a smaller species. Young clowns generally do OK with another young clown. When they get mature, because the dominant/submissive signals are not the same between species, paring can be extremely rough on the smaller clown.

A. sebae - the closest relative to polymnus - would be the only one that might work, but like Minh I wouldn't recommend mixing species or even local varieties.

Sorry, I mean "mixed clown species" not "cross anemone species".
