I have 3 RBTA's and 2 clowns the smaller clown refuses to host anything but the corner of the tank, the larger clown won't leave my new RBTA alone. It used to host the other larger nem. I know it's too big for this one but it won't leave it alone. Not even long enough for me to get a good picture...can I put her in my sump until the nem gets better?

125 gallon 6 foot tank
No ammonia, phosphates or nitrates
Nitrates below 10ppm
Ph 8.0 -working on getting this up
Calcium 460ppm
Alkalinity 214ppm
Salinity 26
Eshopps ADV 200 Sump with Eshopps X220 skimmer

Ok, I blocked the clown from getting to the nem and target fed it some brine shrimp
It looks much happier now. Should I keep the clown off him for a while?
