I've got a well-established 16 bowfront with softies, cleaning crew, and CB shrimp. It's got an aquaclear 30 gallon and a bak pak skimmer (rated for 50 gallon tank, I believe).

How many o. clowns could I add? I'm hoping the answer will be a crew of 3!
 
Three fish total would be a good number. But three clowns? Two may mate up and eventually kill off the third or beat it up pretty bad. Something to think about.
 
Odds are, if you add 3, one will become a female, one will become a male, those two will become a pair, and probably end up killing the third.
