Sudden Clownfish Death

I did notice occasionally that the bigger one did chase the smaller one for a second or two each time. But for the most part it was a rare behavior I've observed only a few times and they seemed to pretty happily cohabitate otherwise
The surprising thing for me, but observed by many , is that fish rarely fight in front of you. To catch them it is often recommended to set up a camera. They are almost like kids, waiting for the teacher to turn his back, to start misbehaving.
As you did not see any wound, I will guess, that it was bullied enough to cause high stress, even though it did not hurt it physically.

Well that is just another thing to know and learn from. It would be funny the way you described it if I wasn't in this current predicament ha ha. Thanks for the info!
