1 Answer

Answer :

Clowns and damsels are in the same family which doesn't mean they always get along together (just like humans).  Usually, once each has estabished his territory, all will be well. It depends on the individual fish. It's always best to start them out together at the same time in an aquarium. Many enthusiasts have put them together and it has worked out.
