Paired clowns with new mandarin goby

[Lorinxo]

I’ve had a pair of clowns for about 3 years now .. over that time period I’ve lost a blue tang, lawnmower blenny, and a diamond spotted goby. I was down to the 2 clowns, flame hawkfish, and a coral banded shrimp. Yesterday I introduced a mandarin goby and noticed what appeared to be my clowns acting aggressive?? Or are they just being curious? They’ve followed the goby around pretty much non stop and the goby just hides in the rocks. When i turned the light off last night i noticed that the goby did seem to come out and swim a bit more.. should i be concerned? Are the clowns aggressive or is this just a mix of the goby being in a bit of shock from introduction to a new tank?

Btw the tank is 80 gal

Established clowns are aggressive and will hurt new additions if not properly acclimated.
Are you supplying pods for the mandarin ?

Yes, I did get some Tiggerpods get put those in the tank when i put the mandarin in. What should I do? I don't want the clowns to end up hurting or killing the mandarin

Are they attacking it or just swimming near it ?

One bottle of pods isn’t going to last long. Your going to spend a lot of money on pods

From what I can see they aren't attacking it, the bigger clown is just kindof following the mandarin around. I haven't seen him attack, but the mandarin is staying hidden in the rocks.
