Hi guys, so I have a 30 gal tank, but I only have 2 percula clowns, it has been over a year since I bought them, and they started laying eggs over a month ago.. I want to introduce new clown fish to the tank but I don’t know how to do it in order that the fish I already have don’t get very aggressive with them any tips???
 
Don’t. They will kill any new additions, or your new addition will kill one of them. I tried having three in a 125gallon with lots of nems. Didn’t work. The new fish stole the mate and harassed the old male into the overflow. Wouldn’t allow it back into tank. Please don’t add another clown.
 
Don't do it your pair of clownfish will definitely fight and eventually kill the new clown. I tried adding a new clown with my existing clown back when I started in the hobby and the fought all day and one eventually killed the other. If I could add more I would, believe me I love clowns.
