Welcome to R2R!
Stick with 2. If you add a third the two that pair up will kill the third

Welcome to Reef2Reef!!! there are some exceptions, but generally, it is better to stick with one or two clownfish for a medium or small tank. Good luck with whatever you choose!

I have 2 black storm clownfish an I’m thinking about adding 1 or 2 more of the naked cinnamon clown would that cause any aggression?
The problem you May run into is clowns tend to be and can b territorial and either they are acceptive of new introduced ones or go after them often shredding fins, biting others, pinning them to a corner as examples

Welcome! As mentioned, it's best practice not to add another if you have established clownfish already. Sometimes it works, sometimes it ends very badly.
