Good deal!
I had this clown adventure when the hurricanes hit and I had to consolidate. You could possibly (probably) get away with another pair in the 225. From my personal experience, another pair is a different story than just an odd clown. Although far from ideal but the only option, I had multiple pairs in each tank, even (yikes) a 55. I think the old pair will defend their territory and the new pair will find and defend theirs.
I think a single represents a problem because it could potentially "out" one of the pair so nature dictates to get rid of it to protect the pair. I think pairs are a different story.
Again my .02 and the logical idea that I deduced from my own experiences.
Only this would happen to meowzer :) lol but im super jealous

nice shrooms. I can't believe that tank supported the corals it did when my tank is prestine and I can't for the life of me get shrooms to survive.

That's because mushrooms like it a little off...clean perfect tanks are not good for mushrooms or Xenia. Perfect tanks are for SPS coral. Beginners and fish only systems are great for shrooms.

You know...I have never really had to deal with GBA...I had like 2 in my 29G and picked them out...never saw any again
One emerald is not gonna do anything IMO, BUT if you are taking the rock out...I guess you could scrub it really good....rinse it even better...and leave it in a dark tote for a few days just to make sure
HAHA....When I pick up the rest of my stuff next week, I am gonna put all rock with life in one container with emeralds....andthe other rock in a dark tote.....I may put some emeralds in there too....I have been told they are ok in the dark....ALSO....I am not feeding the tank they are in...so hopefully they stay hungry and eat it all....they are doing a good job so far
