I've had my 85 gal up for a year. First fish in was a pair of Black Ice Snowflake Clownfish from DD. Beautiful. So I've had these fish for about a year and I came home yesterday with water on the outside of my rimless tank. So apparently one of these has decided they are female and chasing the other. I have noticed the shaking behavior since I have had them but never chasing. I watch the chasing behavior last night and come home today and the other is dead on the floor. My first question is what the heck?! lol and my second is I assume to not replace the deceased because they will get pounded too? I got my first BTA a week or two ago but they have ignored it. That didn't have anything to do with it right? Should I just stick with the one clown now? Thank you!
 
I would get a screen top before more suffer the same fate. All fish can jump and will at one point or another.
