Two on paired clowns will frequently result in aggression towards the smaller clown. Keep an eye out on the one left to see how she does.

I don’t think that the BIG one killed it. Just by you saying big one tells me there was a size difference. Had they been the same size there would then be a chance that one could kill the other. Were these juvenile fish?

Idk I live up north and have to do online fish orders... This was disappointing cause 3 shrimps plus 2 fish was 300$ and I did everything good and 2 things already died... When u got the live stocks the dead fish was looking not good and the other shrimp's Eco Skelton was off, all the other ones were fine just those two looked "not good"... I am really passionate about this hobby, check the water all the time but just no good luck... Atleast I still have the 3 live stocks that are doing well... I just don't think it was my fault in the first place, it was probably the fish store or the shipping people... But Hopfully I'm right and the other live stocks are good, they are doing really good...

I've certainly seen big clown kill little clown (non-paired). In fact, not all that unusual. Did you notice aggression?
 
Don't add any more clowns in. Just not safe unless they are paired.
Hi my cleaner shrimp was grabbing on to my peppermint shrimp like a bully, so I switched it to at with the clown, now the clown looks super scared and hiding in a corner... I'm a mess rn idk what to do should I just bring the cleaner back to display tank?
