I recently acquired a male and female Lightning clowns. However, I can't get them to pair. The female is so aggressive to the male and drives him into my overflow box. I have several BTA in the tank, she hosts all of them.
FWIW, my tank is a 125 with lots of hiding room.
Any help on how to get her to accept the male?
 
I don't think you can make her accept the male. You can give it time but other than replacing her with another and try again I doubt there is much you can do and I know those fish are not cheap. One thing comes to mind is maybe remove her and place her in another tank for a few days and try reintroducing her with the other fish. Good Luck and I hope someone else has a better suggestion.
 
It has been known that it is better chance to have at least one white stripe maroon or Morse code maroon ...they haven't gotten a very stable couple of lightnings that have produced a stable hatch. I've got a male lightning and a female Morse code on the way
