So I've had a black ice and picasso in my tank for about 3 months now. They were only 3-4 months old when I got them. Besides some shrimp, snails and a tail spot blenny they've been the only inhabitants. I've since picked up a smaller bali clown (about 3/4" long) and an inferno anemone which have been housed in a small mesh basket in my tank until the bali gets a little bigger. Within 2 days the bali was already hosting in the anemone. It has me wondering if there will be any fighting over the anemone once I take them out of the basket. Should I get another anemone for the black ice and picasso to reduce any aggression?

yup! a fight might break out, and not for the nem. just because clowns are funny that way. they love to fight! until they are bonded and alone! lol

The existing pair will likely fight & kill the bali for invading their territory. It's not a good idea to keep more than 1 pair of clowns in a tank.
