A male will become a female in just a few days in my experience if there is no female in the tank. A juvenile is the safest to add and the only way I would ever consider adding more than one with your existing clown.

I am pretty sure the one I have remaining is a male. Juvenile wise, is it safe to assume the cluster of clowns they sell at stores are all juveniles, seeing as they have not paired off and in a ball. lol

I only assumed a fish under or around an inch to be a juvenile. I am afraid it being too small, but a smaller sized one may be safest.

Species wise, would it matter, since I cannot remember which one I have remaining. I‘m assuming it might be okay, provided it be small enough. Thanks
