Mixing clowns...?

[lasvegasog]

Hello, I want to take down a tank. I have two sebae clownfishes in this tank. I want to transfer them to a 34 gallon tank with one percula clown as the sole occupant? Will they fight or do you think they will be ok?

they will more then likely fight as it is a small tank and the perc already estabished his territory.

+1 to that. If it was a larger tank, and new territory for everyone it could be done, but with those circumstances it's not gonna happen.

I tried this when I first got into saltwater and it was a fiasco. Worked later in a 180 but not in a 40.

I would advise against it. I have a pair of tomatoes and a pair of percs in a 240 but the reside at each end so they don't see each other much. When they get close they fight and retreat 6 feet away from each other. There's just not enough distance in a 34 to get away from each other.
