How old are the clowns, how long have they been in the tank? If the clowns are established and mature you might need to consider a fish with a fairly strong personality.

For pods Damsels and Wrasses are active pod eaters. What type of pods are you talking about?

How old is the tank?

Wetmorella or pink streak wrasses would work.

pink streak wrasse

+1 on this wrasse, just be aware that they do not do well against aggressive clowns. I had to keep my clowns in a breeder box for 2 weeks while my pink streak wrasse adjusted. I have since gotten rid of my clowns do to their territorial aggressiveness, got tired of seeing my other fish attacked all the way on the other side of the tank. You could also get any other possum wrasse species.

If you want something that's a bit sturdier, an orchid dottyback would be a good choice. They are very active fish and stand out pretty well with their bright purple coloration.

Clowns 1,5 years old.! And the tank is almost 2 years old!

+1, this was going to be my suggestion as well. I love sixlines also, but they have a bad rap for being feisty. I am still considering one as my last addition though

If the clowns are long established, a 6 line might be needed as they won't be pushed around by a pair of territorial clowns. The issue with the Possum Wrasses or Pink Streaked is that they are arguably the most timid wrasses out there. I also agree that a captive bred orchid dottyback would be a good choice. You want that balance between a fish not being on the attack, but not afraid to defend itself either.

A Tailspot blenny has a interesting character.

As long as there is a cave a pink streak or possum wrasse will be able to cope with whatever the clowns dish out.
