New tomato?

Hey guys. Awhile ago I got a pair of juvenile tomato clowns. They got along great. Unfortunatly a few weeks ago one of the clowns jumped out of the tank and died. Now the other clown is alone. I'm wondering how safe it would be to add another tomato clown at this time?
Thanks
 
I would add a smaller one and put a glass divider between them to observe how aggressive the larger one is toward the smaller. Soon the larger clown will become less aggressive and then you can remove the glass, but keep an eye on them. In a few weeks alone in a tank your clown will have started to become female if it wasn't in the first place. You didn't say whether it was the larger or the smaller that died, but either way, alone in a tank for weeks will lead the clown toward being female. For this reason, a juvenile male is the only safe bet.
