Clownfish Advice

I need some advice on a pair of maroon clownfish we have...


Originally there was the pair we bought, they got along fine. Then one of them ended up dying. So went and bought another one the same day, thinking mayyybe the fish in the tank wouldn't know, and it'd work out. Well they started fighting... after a day figured out this isn't dominance fighting, the one that had been there was picking on the new ones fins and stuff, and the new one looks ragged on its fins. So I caught the new fish, and had it in a net in the tank since so it doesn't get picked on.


Thought we'd have to get rid of both clown fish if we want a pair to get along, so I caught the other one and put it in a separate net in the tank. I moved them both into a bucket this morning to see how they'd act, and now they aren't fighting. They're actually hanging out together...




Is it possible after relocating them together like that that they might get along, or is it not worth the try and just get rid of both of them and buy a new pair? I'd rather not get rid of them if I don't have to, I don't like getting rid of my fishies /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/sad.gif And moving the rock in the tank around is not an option, it has rod in it and stuff. And BTW this is in the 180g tank.

 

I just realized I never updated this...it's way late but oh well, haha. Ended up donating them back :/ They just weren't working and didn't want them to kill each other!
