I have a clownfish who is probably 1.5 years old. She's still pretty small, but she is extremely territorial with her anemone. She will attack other fish that get too close, or my hand when I am doing a water change or cleaning the tank. I am going to get a bigger tank and would love a foxface rabbitfish, but I am a little concerned for the clown given the venomous spines on the rabbet fish. Would they generally be okay to house together? I would hate for the clown to get hurt.
