What If I have a clownfish that paired with a hammer head and I want to add an anemone with it's anemone crab.
Can the clowfish make trouble ? and what about adding a second clowfish to form a couple, should it be done before or after the addition of the anemone with it's crab?
I know the clowfish might even stick to it's hammerhead if I add an anemone , but i'm wondering if anyone ever attempted this situation?

First; there is no guarantee that your clown will host the nem if it's already hosting a hammer. I would first get the second clown (smaller than the one you have if possible) then do a nem after they bond. I would then add the porcelain crab much later. Once the nem host the clowns they will protect it viciously and more than likely won't let a crab share the space. I did the same thing and the clowns fought the crab so much the nem wouldn't stop moving until I re-homed the crab. Just do it all with plenty of time and patience! Good luck!!
