Clownfish are very aggressive

If you can’t separate them then give one to another reefer or bring it back to LFS. One is going to end up dead if you don’t.

Are they the same size?

There is often an aggressor when introducing pairs and the larger being a female is generally the culprit. Your only recourse is isolation in an acclimation box or sump for about 10 days and see if it ceases or resumes. If it resumes, you have an obvious decision to make

Oh its a dominance thing, separate the larger one
