Looking for new tank buddies

[TGIGreen]

Hi there. I have a royal gramma and 3 banggai cardinalfish currently in my 350L/92US gal tank.
I’m looking at getting some maroon clown fish (a mated pair) but I’m worried that they will stress or attack the other fish that are in there. There are lots of hiding spots for both the gramma and banggai to hide if things do get a little aggressive.
Could I have a little advice if this is a good or bad idea to move forward with?

Clownfish are damsels. They can be very territorial. Elliot from Marine Collectors always suggests an acclimation box. I have to agree. It greatly reduces stress and aggression. A nice anemone might distract the clowns. But that is a different challenge.

I did maroons ONCE, decades ago, never again. I stick with ocellaris.

May I ask why you would never again have maroon clowns?

Marrons are the most aggressive of the clowns group. The smaller the tank the bigger the problem will be.
I was helping a person who had a 90 gallon and had two in the tank with several other fish and in under 2 years all that was left was the clowns and everything he tried to put in was murdered. So they got donated to a fish store and have been there for a long time still.
If you going to have them then you need fish bigger or that can stand up to them..
With bigger fish means less in your tank..
I understand they are pretty.
Question why marrons?

Keep in mind every fish has its own personality but maroons have a reputation for their aggression. Mine killed every fish I tried to add after putting them in the tank. I finally ended up returning them to my lfs.

Thank you. My partner likes the because the size of them. My lfs only have ocelerous clowns, which he thinks they will be too small for the tank, as we’re not looking at getting many more species of fish
