Hi I have a 55 gallon tank,
So I bought 3 Ocellaris clown fish. When I put them in my tank i started noticing 2 were pairing off and one was alone, so I bought a bigger snowflake clown fish to help the lonely guy out. But over this past week I have notice that one of the clown fish that was paired started to be bullied. He is the only clown that is turning pale. What do I do?

Typically it isn't recommended to keep more than two clownfish in a tank of that size or smaller. You may want to add another tank or find a new home for two of the fish. Good luck with your adventure!
