Fish advice

Back when I first started my tank I got 3 domino damsels, not to cycle the tank but because I liked them. The gf never liked them and wanted clowns. so a couple months later i got 2 maroons. Now almost a year later they are all still juvenile but the bigger of the 2 damsels are getting aggressive, I had a felling this might happen. The third damsel is still much smaller than the clowns and is picked on as much or more by the dominant one.

My question is if I leave the smaller damsel in the tank will the clowns leave it alone or should I just find a new home for all three?

Take them out. Things don't 'get better' with clownfish.

Woke up this morning to find 2 new big rips out of the maroons fins.

Damsels out... maroons looking happy

rock totally re'scaped, almost happy with the look

anyone want some feeder damsels for their predators?

Maybe someone will know whether Big Al's has a shark tank.
A perfect place for damsel.
