I just got the fish I ordered online, and I ordered just one pair of black ice clownfish but I was sent 2. Will I be okay with both being added to the tank? Thanks in advance.

Sorry for bad picture, I own a IPhone 6They are currently temperature acclimating in my sump
Okay thanksIt won’t work. I’d look into keeping 1 pair in a isolation box or sump until you can find them a new home
Ok, ThanksOcellaris can be keep in group. 4 will be OK especially in a 120 gal tank
How do you go about doing that ? Add them all at once or could you add 2 more clowns to an established pair in a larger tankOcellaris can be keep in group. 4 will be OK especially in a 120 gal tank
This I'm doing the same with a pair of skunks and a pair of maroons. They can care less about each other. Skunks were already paired from LFS and I paired the maroons.Ocellaris can be keep in group. 4 will be OK especially in a 120 gal tank
IMO, if you put these two pairs together, the maroon pair, specifically the female, will kill the skunk pair when she is a little older and larger.This I'm doing the same with a pair of skunks and a pair of maroons.

Very interesting. You don’t have pictures of these clownfishes? I would love to see them. ThanksBeen that way for a bit now with no issues. The skunks know how to avoid her anemone, but otherwise no issues with both different pairs coexisting. Current config has coexisted for over a year @ this point & the female maroon is easily 3.5-4" long & the male is 2.5 inches or so. The female maroon definitely has established her territory, but otherwise leaves all including the other pair of skunks clowns alone.
I knew it was a risk, but I rolled with it and so far came out on the other side as in previous iterations the maroons pairs I've had were usually hell on wheels to other clowns let alone every other fish that they can tango with size and attitude wise.
