It depends on your tank size. How big of a tank are you talking about?
In this case size matters, I tried a pair of ocellaris and a pair of Blue stripes in my 180 and it was war, the Blues where bigger then the ocellaris and drove them to the back corners. I had to remove them and now they have there own 50G world with there nem and Watchman goby.

Not really reccomended, but I wouldn't say impossible on this one.
Usually I suggest no clown mixing, but a skunk is different enough in shape/color and usually tank raised falses are on the passive side.
I had this combo in my 90 for a while and never had a problem.
I just got bored w/ the skunk as you couldn't hardly see it in the nem, no contrast.
Hard to say for real long term, I've heard others say the same though.
But 2 pairs may be pushing it in a 50.
It's a gamble, but those 2 have the best chance IMO

iv seen a pair of tomatos with a pair of false percs in a 180. the tank was divided by a wall of live rock which blocked their veiw of each other. war would erupt when one clown would venture to the oposite side of the tank though.
