Clown Fish Compatibility Question

Okay, my wife has started stocking her 30-gallon tank. Thankfully, she has her own tank now and will quit trying to pick out fish for mine. :) I kid, sort of. Anyway, she purchased a Naked Clown Fish today and he's acclimating to the tank as I write. She just asked me if she could add a Black and White Clown to the tank also. Since both are Ocellaris, I cannot see why they wouldn't be compatible. But I trust the veterans here more than my intuition. Thanks for the help! :)

As long as you are sure they are both Ocellaris, then they should be fine. There is always the possibility that the new clown will be aggressive to any new comers. The color morphs do not make a difference, and that we even get some of the color variations by mixing morphs. Oh, and the new guy should be smaller.
