Im sure you reposted, but I will say this... clowns are very agressive to other members of their species so prob the one killed the other and with the one dieing, it may have begun to decay (depending on long the shipment time was) and leached hazardous waste chemicals into the water. Even the slightest amount will harm fish, especially saltwater fish. I would just watch it and if it is not eating within a day or two, then I would become really concerned as it is most likely not going to make it... If this is the case, I would demand a refund fromt he supplier for either not properly marking the packaging for proper handling or for just being stupid and putting two clowns in a small bag for any period of time...
