I have a 40g cube with 2 clowns in it right now. The female clown bullied a Midas blenny so badly it wouldn’t eat and I had to move it to another tank. I’m looking to put new additions in the tank, but I’m scared the clown will do the same thing. I have a juvenile clown in another tank, should I remove the female and add the juvenile clown? The female would then be put in my frag tank with some of my more aggressive fish (sixline, damsel).
 
Female clowns can get very aggesive especially if the tank is small, they feel they own the tank and the will bully certain smaller fish that get near her area, ie nem or cave area.
if you remove her to the other tank it will settle her down for a bit, dont add the smaller juvy clown into the paired tank until you remove her and the male will usually get along with the smaller clown, if you decide to pair up the juvy with the male the male will eventually change into a female called protandrous hermaphrodites
