Got two Black and White with orange face clowns, sorry don't know the exact name of them, from the LFS. They were in the tank for several months and seemed to have paired up. one is slightly larger than the other one.
Into my tank and the first week or so seemed to be happy with each other like at the LFS tank.
Then in the past week the bigger one keeps chasing the other around, bumping him and chasing him into the rocks.
No sign of ICH and they are both eating normally.
But the little dude is getting bullied for sure.
Any thoughts....
Thanks
 
The aggression is typically normal, but even with paired clowns, sometimes the female goes a little haywire. I lost 3 males in a week once, all separate systems, and to this day I don't know why, so unfortunately, sometimes it doesn't always go as we hope.
