I have three False Perculas clowns and they all have this black coloration on the top half of the fish. I just bought two of the three in the last month and they started developing the same black coloration as my original fish is there something wrong with them? Is there anything i can do to make them as bright as before?
Thanks in advance for any help!

First off, welcome to the board.
It is possible that as your clowns are getting older they are changing into their adult coloration. Depending on what type of clown they are.
Now for the bad news. As your clowns get older they will mature and one of them will turn into a female. This will actually be the bigger, more aggressive fish. One of the others will stay a male and these two will harrass and probably kill the third clown. At least I am assuming that your clowns are juvenilles right now. I say this based on the fact that they have not fought and killed each other yet. This is also assuming that they are all the same type of clown.
