Lost one of my clowns, only had him for 2 weeks. Seemed to get along perfectly with the other… always swam together, they were inseparable. But I noticed the other day his fins were being nipped. I’m suspecting it was happening at night since I never saw any negative behavior during the day. Debating getting another if my surviving one is a bully, any tips or advice?

Maybe the crabs?

I would suggest putting the clown fish that’s fins aren’t ripped in a breeder cage or separate them and see if his fins heal if thay don’t then it’s something else in the tank

Man that sucks. Clowns can be weird sometimes. Maybe add new one after a week?!

I know the guy I talked to at my LFS said how rare that was to happen… we got a female in there a week later and they’re a mated pair now and getting along amazing!

What else do you have in your tank?
I have a black/white clown, tailspot Blenny,dwarf hermits, emerald crab and snails. I’ve been doing a ton of research on this, the black and white one is the same type of clown and he was slightly bigger. I was looking at a royal gramma basslet for option b if I can’t get another clown to work.
