Two pairs of clowns?

[saltwaterlover]

(Making my fish list rn)

I’m getting a 108g tank (uk gallons) and I wanted to know whether I could have four clowns in a tank that size? I don’t want them to fight for territory obviously but because it’s a big-ish tank & I wanted to ask around. They won’t have loads and loads of rock in there so they’ll have loads of room and I’m going to make loads of hiding spots.

The tank is (LxHxW) 48”x30”x24”

I want to keep a Longnose hawkfish, Yellow eye Kole Tang, Royal Gramma, A Multi Lubback Fairy Wrasse, (maybe) Lawnmower Blenny and a blue/chromis.
(That all in the future obvs id only be adding the clowns first of all)

@eatbreakfast can probably answer any of your fish questions

I'd suggest you have about a 50/50 chance of it working out OK vs complete failure. The tank is marginally big enough IMHO, but only just. I'd add all 4 at the same time and at the opposite ends of the tank. I had 6 clowns in a 75g tank for about a week, then there were 5. By the end of 3 months there were only 2 and they were ok together and bred several times that we noticed (they tend to hide where they lay the eggs. You might consider having a place to put 2 of them, like a separate small tank, or a friend who doesn't have any clowns, or even back to the LFS if things don't work out.

Good luck either way.
