I have a 25g lagoon with a tail spot blenny,wheeler shrimp goby,purple fire fish and a yellow clown goby. Want to add a pair of clowns but thinking they would bully the fire fish. Wondering if one would be better. I’ve had clowns before but not a fire fish. Before anyone says anything I have to get at least 1 clown because I promised my wife. She misses one we had a long time ago. Here’s a picture of my rock work.

The only thing in my tank my single occelaris clown doesn’t get along with so far is my hand so that could work
 
my son has two clowns in a 55g with 4 fire fish m, two purple with no problems. I’ve personally not had a fire fish.

What could work, 1 or 2
 
Personally speaking, I would not add anything else, but I don't like to stock heavy.

But I certainly wouldn't do a pair of clowns. Just a single.
Maybe you are right
