Clownfish not getting along. Advice please?

[soramsu]

So...I started my tank a few months ago with 2 clownfish I ordered from LiveAquaria. Both ended up getting sick. From what I could tell, it was some type of fungus. Anyway, one died, the other I doctored back to health. In the meantime, I added 2 black clowns to my tank. So, the tank had 2 blacks, and 1 orange. I wanted a mate for the orange one, so I bought one from the LFS. Added him in, and the other 3 seem to hate the new clown. He keeps jumping into the overflow after being harassed by the other 3. I'm really tired of rescuing him....

What should I do? I could get rid of the clown that's being tormented, but I really want to have 2 orange and 2 blacks. Would it make sense to give away the 2 orange I have, and get 2 new orange? Or maybe, adding a 3rd orange?

BTW, my tank is 125 gallons.

You cannot have more than one pair of clowns in a tank of that size. It would have to be a very large scale tank to try this, even than people still have issues. I would remove one set of them and sell them or give them to the LFS before the one clown jumps to his death from being harrassed

1 pair in anything but a very large tank

1 pair in anything but a very large tank

is usually the way to go. I would keep the largest and the smallest and find new homes for the other 2.

+3 keep the largest and smallest and get the other 2 out ASAP.
