Bullying Clownfish

[spoiled_amy]

I have had two clownfish for about 8 months. They got along great until about a week or so ago. The Female kept chasing the male and wouldnt let him come out from behind the rocks. I was able to put a fish net in the tank for a little while and it kept the female on one side of the tank. In the past week the male lost alot of color but was still eating and would come out mostly at night. I havent seen it in two days so I am assuming it is probably dead now. It would come out everytime we fed it.
I now catch the female chasing the chromis' every once in a while. Should I just get rid of this clown? I dont want it to take over the whole tank and kill the other fish or if I get new fish.

Wow, seems odd, hope you get an answer from someone who knows a thing or two. My Clown bullies but the fish are faster than it so it does not get them.

what kind of clownfish? if its a maroon then i'd say get rid of it because once you get an aggressive one it gets worse and worse

my clown fish is bullying the royal gramma and my damsel. Just a false perc. Should I separate it or add another or leave them alone?

They may be mating. sometimes they nip at fins and stuff from what I read.
