I’ve had two clowns in my 88g for about 3 months now and recently the larger one has been bullying the smaller, which from what I’ve read can be normal behavior until the smaller submits. After I came home from work the other day I can no longer find the smaller clown, and he has since been missing for 3 days. I can only assume he went inside the rock work and has possible passed away. Would it be beneficial at some point to replace the other clown or just let the one left be solo?
 
you can introduce another clown but I would put the new clown in an acclimation box so the female can’t bully it to death. Best to get a clown that is way smaller than the clown you currently have

I do have an acclimation box, but how long should it stay inside it?
