Picasso Clowns aggressive?

About a month ago I purchased a Bicolor Blenny for my BC14, and everything was great, and he was healthy. Last week I introduced a juvenile Picasso Clown into my tank and shortly thereafter noticed I didn't see the Blenny out too much. Today I came home and found the Blenny dead in the front of the tank. Is it possible that the clown may have been aggressive towards the Blenny and stressed him to death? The only other creatures are a few blue leg hermits and some margarita snails.
 
I doubt your clownfish is responsible for killing the blenny. A spawning pair of adult clownfish could/may do this in a tank of your size, but not a newly introduced juvie IMO.
 
I didn't think the clown killed the Blenny, just kinda odd the Blenny dies 5 days after the clown was introduced. Hoping it is just coincidence.
 
I'm just wondering if maybe the clown bullied the blenny enough that he would come out of his hiding hole to eat and maybe starved to death.
