you know what i think its the little bastard damsel... though i cant be sure. i did see that my damsel did have a chunk out of his tail... but they dont fight during feeding. also ive had them for as long as ive had the tank. like 6 months. damsel was an addition at 2 months. | |

As Jason mentioned all the fish are Damsels and are mean territorial buggers :-)
Here are a couple of 'different' things you can try :-)
1. Get a plastic anemone for the clowns, they might take to it and therefore limit their territory.
2. Get a picture of a blue damsel and temporarily stick it to the outside of the tank ( picture side in ) it may get the blue damsels attention and divert its agression away from the clowns
