Clowns fighting

So I have had 2 clowns since April 2011. They never really get along, for example the "female" hogs the BTA while the "male" swims along the back wall. Every now and then they will share but then it all ends in a dance of twitching and he swims back to the wall.

Is there anything I can do to help their "relationship" or should I catch them and trade for new younger clowns?

 

Sounds like the female is still trying to show her dominance, or you have two females.

 

Any way I can tell who's who? The "female" is pretty big compared to the "male"

 

that happend to us but we didnt hold out as long as u have. our male was getting pretty beat up. once he got a fat lip and we quickly exchanged them. i dont think theres anything u can do if they simply just dont get along

 

Dang!! I have really grown to love those little guys/gals... But if it needs to be done then I gotta swap them out.

 

You could always try exchanging the smaller one for another one that is smaller then the female you have.

 

I would just let them be unless the male shows physical signs of damage like torn fins, is hiding in the rock work, not eating or gasping at the surface.

This typical clown behavior, the male will submit or the female will let him know.

They should work it out with time.

Females typically keep the male out of the anemone most of the time.

 

Well the bully is about 30% larger than they bullied so that would make it a female right?

 

Thanks! Once again the female hogs everything..

 

Most likely yes, but that doesn't mean that the other one is a male. It could have morphed before you bought it. I agree with Corailline though, just leave them and they will work it out.
