Blue-Green Chromis hiding from clowns

[austenreefer]

I have 2 clowns in my 55 gallon tank with a blue-green chromis (there used to be more but he killed all his siblings). My clownfish arent aggressive but they are very territorial of their anemone. Lately though they have randomly decided to hate this poor chromis. He is wedged between two rocks hiding all day. It does come out to eat every day when I feed them. Is he going to be okay?

The clowns are territorial as you indicated and you likely need to separate the chromis from them of vice-versa.

Do you have any updates?? My chromis is currently doing this bc of the clownfish. They have lived together for over a year and have never had a problem until right now. The nem I have in the tank recently split (also a first for having it for over a year) and the clownfish has been VERY territorial for the last few weeks. I feel bad and am on the verge of buying a separate tank
