Adding a second clown

Hi All

I am going to be adding a small B&W saddleback clownfish to my 24 gal aquapod to join with my other larger one. The newbie has been in QT and will be ready to join the display hopefully on Sunday. I am a little nervous that my female might beat up (possibly kill?) the new one, although I am really hoping that they will pair up. Is there anything I should do to help ease the addition of the new fish as far as reducing the likelihood of a scuffle?
Thanks

Not much you can do, it's up to the clowns. Ive heard that if you feed the clown you have already just before adding the new one sometimes helps to take the attention off the new one also waiting for like an hour after the lights go out also might help. just my .02
