you have a maroon clown to add a mate you must make sure the new one is bigger or they will fight.this is the most aggressive and largest of clown they get just over 6 inches.extremely territorial.but very hardy

A 4+ inch maroon clown is almost certainly already a female. Adding a larger female will cause a blood bath. Pairing maroons is very tricky. You will need to get a very small fish that will be a male or juvenile. You should still be ready to scoop out the new fish if things don't go well.
Good luck,
Phil
