I have two tanks. Amongst other fish, in each tank I have a pair of clowns. In a month or so I am going to make some changes to these tanks. I plan to re-scape, move some corals, etc. But I have been wondering, could I put all 4 clowns in one tank? They are paired up. One bigger, one smaller in each pair. Both pairs hang out in their favorite torch corals.

If I put them together am I asking for a fight? Or will they likely coexist peacefully since they already have their mates?

What size tank? What kind of clowns?

I have a 75 and a 180. Both tanks have a pair of Oscellaris clowns in them. I am in the planning stages, and have made no firm decision on whether they would go in the 75 or the 180; or even whether I will in fact try to put them together. I am just trying to figure out if I *could*.

They should work in the 180. Keeping 2 prs in a 75g is iffy, it may or may not work.
