I have two pairs of clowns in separate tanks, I am moving and I am going to try to consolidate tanks, I am worried about putting the pairs together. I have one pair that are full adults and a young pair. Do you think they will be Ok the tank is a 60G long I really don't want to have to find one of them a home :squigglemouth:
 
I was able to keep two sets of clowns in a 55G. What I think might have helped was that I rearranged the rock work when I added the second pair. If you add them at the same time to a new tank they might stakeout their turf in different areas. Good luck !
 
It may be ok - time will tell as the young ones mature. As mentioned, try rearranging rock in the tank you're adding livestock to.....
 
IMO/E, it won't work long term. It could work for a while, but once a pair starts spawning, all bets are off. It can be shocking how aggressive a mated pair of clowns can be towards other fish, let alone another clown(s).
