the maroon clown is a little nasty to wards its own kind & other fish at times but for a normal common clown ( orange/red/tomato ) with a black clown can happen i`ve seen it many times to my surprise just make sure there around the same size also expect some teething problems at first while they settle in to there own territories but they will be fine give a week.....
Are these going to be the first fish to the tank??
if so avoid putting them in first because once there settled they may bully new smaller fish when they enter the tank at a later day

With clownfish you want to stick with one species per tank. Just get a pair of the same species and all will be fine. Anyway hope this helps and good luck!
If you want to keep clowns it is best to stick to one species and one species only. I would also suggest that for a tank that size that you only have one pair if clowns. Otherwise, fighting will ensue. The only way that you might get away with more than one species of clowns is if you put them in the tank at the same time and even then there will probably be some fighting.

It depends if you find to juvenile clowns get 2. One will turn into a male and the other a female and they'll form a pair. That's the only way to make sure that they won't try to kill each other on introduction.
