help my clown

[emmo nemmo]

help, my clownfish is attacking his same percula clown they're together for 2 days in 15g tank, what is the possible reason? are they fighting? or they're just pairing?

A short video will help to show us more, hard to judge based on the short description.

Clownfish pairs will fight to establish the dominant among the pair. I believe the dominant will become the female, with the submissive one the male.

Things can get brutal.

Compounding the problem, it is only a 15 gallon tank. While the tank is small, they will come to settle down in it.

Clownfish are VERY territorial. I wouldn't add any more fish to that tank.

This sounds like typical clownfish behavior.

Typical, but may require intervention if things don't settle down. Don't let it get to the point of death.
