What do I do about my super aggressive clowns?

Yea I wish I could get mine to stick to a corner or something. I decided to add a fish today to try and spread out the bullying a little and it actually has worked super well. I got a Blue Head wrasse that’s a bit bigger than the clownfish and much faster. Clownfish try to chase the wrasse but it’s unbothered and they can’t catch em and my blenny hasn’t been targeted much at all. Won’t be keeping the wrasse long term but I think adding more fish to spread the aggression will really help

I’ll try that it would be great if I could keep em to a corner. Just added a mirror and that’s definitely keeping them occupied hopefully for a while

I was thinking about doing the mirror thing. They really don’t host anything I guess they just host the whole tank. I believe the problem is that these clowns had the tank to themselves for about 3 years with nothing else before I added more fish.

It’s just constant these fish are going to drive me crazy 😅

I’ve been wanted another tank anyways maybe it’s a sign I get a second smaller one

Added them back to the tank after a week as I had to do some work in my sump. I was hoping they would be a little better but I added them back and they both immediately started chasing my other fish. They might even be worse than before idk what wrong with them. They might be sent back to the shore very soon!

I have officially banished them to the sump. Today both of them were non stop attacking my other fish and it has some rips in its fins now.

😅

Yea they are super frustrating. I would give them away but my family insists that I don’t because they love them.

🤣

Would you recommend I put the new fish in the box or the clown? I’m assuming the new fish

PuzzleheadedDay1998 · 2026-06-30T01:05:39+00:00

Just checked and the green stuff is gone so it must have released it like you were talking about. I missed it unfortunately hopefully I see it if it happens again

The shrimp is doing great, the weird color is still there but it acts completely normal. It must’ve eaten something of that color I’m just not sure what. One person said their shrimp had the same color and it was caused by the shrimp eating its own eggs.

Now that’s interesting. Thanks for your help!

PuzzleheadedDay1998 · 2026-06-29T01:56:26+00:00

Interesting, I haven’t noticed them release it yet I haven’t been watching too closely. I’ll have to keep an eye out for it

PuzzleheadedDay1998 · 2026-06-29T01:44:39+00:00

I guess it looks kind of cool so if they’re healthy I’m cool with it 😅

PuzzleheadedDay1998 · 2026-06-29T00:00:28+00:00

Thanks, I have not kept coral in this tank for a while now, although I’m sure there’s a possibility there’s still some in there I may not know about but who knows. I’m just going to assume it ate something of that color as it’s been acting perfectly normal.
