Had a pair of black snowflake clowns, but male jumped. Wanted to pair the female and got a picasso clown ( smaller then the female, female is twice its size). Also created a acclimation box that i put the DT in a corner and put both clowns in there. The picasso is defiantly getting harassed. i see him turning on the side when she gets closer but not the twitch. i was wondering to see if i should try any tips of pairing them. Should i separate them in the acclimation box and just let them stare at each other, or let them together. Let them in the DT again. Any recommendations are helpful. thanks

How long have they been together without any divider?
Update. After observing them yesterday evening i noticed that the female was more aggresive. I fed them both and both ate pretty good sharing the food no problem. Then the picasso went into a corner and just sat there when the female would get close to him he would just turn with its head down and just stay there not move anymore. so i was worried if that was normal behavior. I saw the female chase him aggressive couple time through the evening also. SO i decided to put a divider and as soon as the divider was up both fish came to the divider and were like looking for each other. It was weird because when are together they fight but if separate them its like they search for each other. let me know what should i do next?
