I’m just curious about how there sex change happens. I had a pair of clowns and one of them(coral)got sick recently and died unfortunately but (Marlin) other one is fine and I assume it was the female since it was bigger. After about a month I just got another one smaller than what was marlin, since marlin is now coral unless he won’t become female till another clown is introduced? Do they change if there alone and was a male or will they wait for another clown? How does it work?
