How big is the tank with the Maroon clown in it? Aside from setting up a small 10 gallon tank or so for the "Gladiator" clowns, something has got to go IMO.

It's a 55gallon

You'll have to decide which one to keep.

Agreed with the above comments, both are unlikely to coexist in that size tank.

I put a new clown fish in a little tank in my big tank for around a week and when let it out they were all fine together, I have a 46 bow

Agreed, I would take the maroon out.

Good for you,. I've read/heard that eventually they get aggressive to each other in a small tank (small space to swim)
