They both are in the anemone and not fighting to night

They both look to be about the same size. Are you sure you don't have two females?
When I paired up both sets of clowns my boyfriend and I have, I made sure one clown was much smaller than the other, and they definitely did not fight like that. There was a lot of the submission shake, and a nip or two here and there for the first few days, but nothing like what your clowns are doing. We first tried to pair up the two single clowns we had, and they fought like yours are.....we figured they were both females, but wanted to make sure. They had no problem pairing up with their smaller boyfriends, however.

I don't know they both are in the anemone not fighting at all. So I'm just going to let it ride and see how it plays out

I don't mean to seem abrasive but you should really take a step back, look at what you have done so far in this hobby and reconsider your approach to it. If you truely wish to keep reef tanks for any given time frame you have got to try a different approach than your current one.
I have commented on multiple threads posted by you about various questions you have had, seen countless pieces of advice given to you regarding your tank/anemone/clownfish, and seen that advice ignored multiple times. If you wish to do things the hard way than that is your option, but why post looking for advice here if you choose to ignore that advice anyways?
Looking back at your posts for the last few months you have gone through at least 4/5 anemone, 4+ clownfish, as well as some other animals. In the end it is all your money but most come to this site seeking advice to increase their success in the hobby.
I may not have been in this hobby for an extremely long time but I have done my best to take my time and to some point follow the advice of the many intellegent reefers here. I have made my share of mistakes in this hobby but I try to take the advice given to me here and apply it to my tanks, and it has served me fairly well, I would suggest you do the same.
Best of luck and I hope everything in your tank becomes healthy.

That Anemone looks severly bleached out from the looks of your video. What type of lighting is it under? There is no such thing as a Pure white bubble tip anemone. I think the clowns may be the least of your worries. just my .02

Post #7, You purchased a LTA for your tank, and admitted to overfeeding by feeding it everyday. You said you moved it to a bigger tank, but you have never posted about having a bigger tank (not that its impossible just never seen it).
You already know the GBTA you purchased was bleached when you bought it. I am not saying it is impossible to keep BTA's in a 10g with a pair of clowns. I didn't see any Coral banded shrimp in that video what ever happened to them? I am only suggesting you slow down a bit and ask questions before you make decisions if you want honest feed back.

I agree with Tm. In fact I was going to mention something also. You seem to go through a lot of clowns. This is at least your third pair since July.
You do a great job of asking questions on here once you buy something, however the proper way is to ask questions BEFORE you buy something. Here is My story Once you start doing that and get going you can be successful in this hobby.
Now not to sounds mean, but I see you offering advice to people based on what you have in your tank. You should wait until you have had success with your tank. Success being when you have had a stable tank for a year.
Remember, everyone here wants you to succeed. It is best for you and best for the hobby.
