will tomato clown and black and white ocellaris get along?
i have a tomato clown in my 45 gallon tank. i really want a black and white ocellaris clown, or perhaps even a pair. will the clowns be agressive towards eachother? i also have two damsels and two gobies, will they be okay together?

It is not be a good idea to mix clownfish types in such a small tank. And on top of that you have damsels. The risk of too much aggression, doesn't make it worth to try to add the new o. clownfish, imo.
Stock the tank you have, not the tank you plan to have. Always have and use patience.

I'm guessing they will fight, so no. Not a good idea.

You can try not removing the damsels, but they will likely be a problem. You can try taking out the damsels, rearranging all the rock, adding the clownfish, then reintroducing the damsels.
