clown getting harassed

[fritters]

:help: PLEASE HELP!
I have had 3 clowns in my tank several month. Now all of a sudden the two larger ones are chasing the smaller one all over the tank. He of course is breathing rappidly and confined to a corner. Does anyone have any ideas of what I can do to help?
They were put in the tank at the same time.

Welcome to the board

Clowns should only be kept in pairs. They will harass him til he dies, you need to remove him ASAP.

Agreed

I agree. They were fine as juveniles but now one of them has become the dominant female and the other the dominant male. They will chase/harass/kill other clowns.
Get the third guy out of there and find him a good home while he is still alive.

I agree that one should be taken out, but make sure your not left with 2 females.
All were the same size before?
Are the 2 the same size?
Do the 2 dominant ones stay together?
If not they might be both females.
Female is usually bigger and dominant. The male is smaller..

The two dominant ones I believe are female.They are larger.I do hate to take a fish out of my tank.But I also don't want him to die.
Thanks Again!!!
