My fish is a bully

[punkieg0]

One of my clownfish has decided to pick on my coral beauty. I have added additional rock trying to break up the landscape a bit. Should I do an acclimation box for the clown for a while or move the coral beauty? They are in my JBJ45. Only other tank I have is a Waterbox 20 cube. I know clowns can be jerks sometime but this is the first time I have had issues.

I had a clown years ago that would attack me whenever my hand went into the tank, would travel from one end of the tank to the other, when he didn't normally do this, just to get me. Obviously doesn't hurt, but he did nip.

Needless to say, he got rehomed.

Just how they are sometimes, if it's an issue, rehome, he wont change behaviour.

They are potential jerks. Catch it and place in sump 1-2 weeks while coral beauty establishes itself in the tank
