i have had an O. Clownfish for a couple of weeks and was thinking about changing tanks would i be able to put another clownfish in the same tank at the same time.

Up to them really, not alot you can do about it directly. Indirectly you can help by maintaining good water quality, nutritious foods and a low stress evironment. Aggressive tank mates can inhibit their "desire" if you will for breeding. It will also help if there is an area in the tank they are able to protect easily enough. Often a small cave or outcroping is sufficent where there is med-low water flow.AR15 guy said:Once they establish male/female will they breed? Or is it harder to do than that?
Stick with only two in such a small tank. Once paired the "happy couple" will not tolerate a third given the space of a 38 gal.I plan on getting two or three when I set my 38 gallon back up. They have always been one of my favorite fish.
