2 pairs of clown in same tank?

I am considering shutting down my 45g corner tank and moving the inhabitants to the 150g. Just tp much work with both tanks right now. Main question, would the clowns get along? I have a pair in each tank right now and not sure if they will get along?

Thx in advance

Chances are no. Just my opinion, tried it once, no success. They two pair were constantly squabbling, and within days had to be separated.

I have a single saddleback and it has it's own anemone, and a single maroon with it's own anemone. They don't fight, but they are singles. I have their anemones placed on opposite sides of the seven foot width of the tank. The saddleback on occasion will chase the maroon but there is no real fighting. For a pair of two different species, I really wouldn't know.

In a big tank like that, I've heard of people being successful keeping two pairs when each pair had it's own anemone.
