I was wondering if I could pair up a maroon clown with an ocellaris or misbar clownfish. Would it be fine? I know maroon clowns are aggressive but I've heard of maroon clowns and ocellaris clowns paired up. I'm just asking, wouldn't risk the other clownfish getting killed.
 
Maroons are an aggressive species of clown so there is always a risk. Realistically, there is a risk with any clownfish. ORA sells Maroon (Premnas biaculeatus) x A. ocellaris mixed clowns as Blood Orange Clownfish. You best chance would be to get both of them small, let them growout together, and keep your fingers crossed. IMO there is a bit higher risk, but doable.
 
The maroon will certainly be the bigger female boss in that situation if it does work
