Clownfish attacking other clown

[thedasher]

So I just got one of my clowns to host my rbta and now when the other clownfish comes near the anemone the one hosting it acts very aggressive towards it and attacks it. The clownfish are platinums and it looks like the one getting attacked is losing some of the white on it. What should I do about this?

here's a picture of the color loss

Catch the aggressor and put it in a breeder box in the tank for a week or so.

How long have the clowns been together?

Just keep an eyes on him and give it some time. That seems to be normal behavior with clowns and nems sometimes

Im not sure, I just got them about 2 weeks ago and they were doing fine. Right when the clown hosted the anemone it became aggressive which was about 2 days ago.

+1, Give it time as this is exactly what happened with my onyx pair and about 3 weeks later both were hosting and had no issues.

Alright thanks I'll see what happens and update it

It has been a month and still only one clown fish is hosting the anemone. Also the anemone just split yesterday, so hopefully the other clown hosts the split one.
