Clown Fish

Hey guys.. I have two clown fish one larger one smaller. I had the smaller one for about a month before I got the larger one. I am pretty sure the larger one took on the role of the female but the problem I have been having is she has become VERY aggrasive towards the smaller clown, to the point of not letting him eat and keeping him squished up between the glass and my heater. When ever he comes out she chases him back in. Any suggestions? Last night I moved her (the larger) to my small 10 gallon (temp) that I setup about a month ago for growing pods and what not.

Thanks for any ideas

Usually the larger (female) will turn agressive towards the male. The male would quiver and dance erratically in front of the female. Mine did the same thing also fighting over my anenome or the same territory. Eventually she settled down and accepted him. This went on for some time they eventually became best friends. 

I wouldn't put them back together again.  I agree with Rocky709, get rid of one of them, and get a smaller one next time.  It's easier to introduce a smaller clownfish to a larger one than the other way around.  I had two clowns together for 4 months and the larger one picked on the smaller one all the time.  I  finally took the smaller one out, waited 2 more months and put another one in the tank with her.  She liked him right off and they get along great. 

If you want to try and put them together again, you might try catching the smaller one and putting it in the 10 gallon with the female.
