can I have 3 clowns in one tank?
I have an orange clown I need to move and would like to put him in my 125 gallon but I already have 2 black clowns. Will this be a problem?

In all likelihood, that will be a problem.

I have three Ocellarisin my 185 that also share three RBTA's. This trio had been together for 3 years, I have had them for 5 months. The smallest gets slightly bullied by the biggest (female) of the pair, but nothing serious.
Each sleep in their own RBTA and all travel together together when the venture away form the RBTA's to feed. I keep a close eye them as this trio partnership could change at any time. So, like others said above, I would not take the chance!

Ya. There is a good chance they will fight. But give it a try. I think that tank size is big enough
