Hi all, recently I upgraded my 55 gallon to a 90 gallon tank. The tank was bought off someone and I got everything up and running yesterday. The tank already came with a good amount of fish in it which I plan to take some out and give to my Lfs. Currently, there are a pair of ocellaris, a coral beauty, sail fin, bristle tooth, a single chromis, one royal gramma, blue tang and a lyre tail anthias. The tank feels a little overstocked and will probably have to remove the sailfish and blue tang once they grow. However, I am currently trying to figure out if it would be a good idea to put my clown in the smaller tankwith the two paired up ones. Would this cause aggression? The one in my other tank I believe is female. Before I do this, I would have to bring salinity down because the guy I bought it from kept his salt at 1.03! So that is another concern.
I’ll attach some photos.

I wouldn’t put clowns in a smaller container with a breeding or mated pair out of the aggression concern and as far as the salinity, my personal opinion is to raise the salinity. I think that’s too low for my liking
