Looking to add a Maroon clown to my tank...with a clown existing

[joem1cha3l]

hey guys, i picked up a clown (certain its a male) from a LFS last week. He is currently in QT. The other day I was in another LFS that keeps a couple of saltwater tanks and they certainly shouldnt. The clown looks sick and it drew my eye. I want to nurse him back to health, but im concerned they may be too aggressive to one another. What can I do?

Not purchase sick fish because you feel bad for them. It gives the store owner incentive to purchase more fish and allow them to get sick. It is horrible to say, but the less sick fish we buy, the less stores that will exist carrying sick fish.

+1 to what SkullV said. Don't encourage these places to attain more fish by buying the sickly ones the currently have

your actions are commendable. Don't be so certain its a male though. how big is it?
