Tomato clowns are one of the most aggressive clowns next to Maroon, and remember Clown fish are Damsels with cuter colours. I'd say you have a fight club on your hands unless your tank is rather large. BTW, alot of Damsels grow really really large.. and they get mean as they get bigger.

yeah, damsels love to chase eachother.........if ur clown doesnt give up the aggressive attitude in the next couple days, it could be a territory issue, try re-arranging ur tank a bit, so it looks like a new environment, this has worked a few times for me

Default Get a BAZOOKA

Okay

The cute little Damsel fish that later becomes the (DEVIL FISH FROM HELL). Take it from me I been through the damsel thing and I suggest you build a acrylic fish trap, put aside many nights, stock the coffee up and GO FISHING!

There is an old comedy called Caddy Shack, the analogy is gophers to damsel.....

Good luck!

Totally agree, the war has just begun.

I actually disagree with myself. The war will go on until some of the combatants get killed.
