Hello,
I recently purchased two Clowns, For the last 4 days they wont eat at all. This morning i woke up and 3 of my crabs where chowing down on one of them. Why wouldn't they eat. I don't have an Anemone for it to host with.
Water Per are perfect.

Clowns don't need an anemone, they can survive without one. Also healthy clowns can go without food for a week or so. As stated above the clown probably died first then the crabs did their job. Clowns are usually pretty hardy but there is always that chance you get a weaker one and it don't survive. How long is your tank running and what else is in there with the other clown? What size tank?
If the clown is still not eating try frozen cyclop-eeze. It's great for picky eaters.
