will a 1 inch orangefin clownfish survive and do well in a 20 gallon reef tank or will it die to easily?

Do you mean an oscellaris (false) perc?
If so most are pretty hardy and would be OK.

I highly doubt the clown will come in at 1". A. chrysopterus are usually sold at 2-3".

They grow to good 6" and are very active clowns. 20G tank will be too small for her.
