My male clownfish had been struggling for the last 2months w/ some kind of unknown internal problem. he stopped eating but after a treatment with metronidazole he started to accept small amounts of food, but not nearly enough. so last night i was ckecking the tank, only to find him dead in my diy overflow. The female is perfectly fine and healthy as ever.

water params:
Ammonia-0ppm
Nitrite-0ppm
Nitrate-15ppm
pH-8.3

i've had the clowns for a little over a yer. can i possibly add another clown? or other another small fish?

would it be possible to get another clown to replace it? or will the female fight over territory?
