OK, I'm trying to pair these two clownfish. What ended up happening is the bigger/ older clown ended up bullying the smaller, recently-bought one (big surprise ). Well I thought everything was going the way it's supposed to go. But now the baby clown's back dorsal fin (I hope this is the right fin) is damaged. Obiviously, it's because of the big clown.
Right now, amazingly enough the baby clown found a way to get away from the big clown: staying on top of the power head. Yep, it's swimming sideways on top of the power head, and he's doing this just because there's not that much water on top of the powerhead, not because he's sick. This way the other clown (the big one) cannot get him (smart fish IMO). My question is how much longer should I wait? Is there anything I can do to help these two to get along faster? I read the putting-it-in-a-plastic-hamster-cage idea, but it's too risky considering the size of my tank and all the corals I have. Besides, I'm sure that will stress out the fish a lot. So what do you guys think?
Any help will be greatly appreciated...
