Clownfish are being Bullies


I have had 4 beautiful percula clowns in my tank forever and, I don't know what changed, but two of them are being horribly mean to one of their previous buddies. This poor guy isn't happy at all and probably won't make it if this continues.

I'm thinking I'll probably have to find him a new home, right? If so, what do I do with perc #3?

I think you need to keep them in odd numbers.

its almost a sure thing that inevitably, you will find that two will pair off and continue to chastize and harass clownfish number three until it dies or you remove it. after that has happened, expect the same fate for clownfish number four. keeping families of clownfish doesnt usually get a lot of success like it does in the wild.
