    I have two ocellaris and a maroon in a 15g right now.. everyone is getting along and all 3 are sleeping in the same anemone at night.

    We have had all 3 for about four months now.

    I originally had 4 clowns, 2 black and white and 2 orange and white. One black and white jumped out and died unexpectedly. the other 3 lived together and got along great for awhile(8 months), then the black and white and one of the orange killed the other orange in one day. It sucked too cause i was just about to take one out in case something did happen, i was too late. They killed the pretty one too of coarse.
