How long have you had them? They could be sorting out who is the "boss." Is it one particular fish causing an issue? How large a tank and what else is in the tank?

I have 2 clowns. One has always bullied the other. The other is VERY SLICK at running and getting away. Sometimes they get along though. They do hide together a lot. They must be married!

Just bickering over dominance, that is most likely the reason. From my experience, many types of schooling or shoaling fish do this because they are trying to gain leadership or dominance over the other schooling mates.
And just a few minor questions, what size tank are they in?
