They most likely won't be sexually mature until they are at least a year old. Your fish don't appear large enough to be adults. Maroon clownfish can have very nasty dispositions and the one that died last night was probably killed by one of the others. The 3rd wheel in the tank will probably be the next one to go. Sorry.

I've noticed so far a large one and a baby are together and the other large one is a loner I have another tank if thing go south. The one that died had all kinds of nips it couldn't swim it was just a baby
 
Typically a female needs to be about 3yrs old to spawn successfully. Some males cans do their job as early as 6-8 months
