Combining Clowns

Howzit - so we have three clowns, one in a 55g, and two small ones in a 15g.
We would like to combine to two tanks into the 55g and ultimately into a 180g when we move to a new house.

The solo clown is pretty big, has been alone for over 6 months. The pair in the small tank - one is definitely bigger than the other but not as big as the solo - leading me to believe that i will be left with two females and a male.

What are the chances that these three will get along like a good little family without killing each other or do i have to resign myself to the fact i will have to get rid of one lot?

Chances are not high, around zero.
