Lost one of my clowns.

My question to everyone is when should I try to introduce a new mate for my clownfish. I just don't want to stress the fish out any more than I have to.

Thanks

I just lost my female clown about 3 weeks ago, and was advised to wait a week before putting a new clown mate in which I did. Also make sure the new addition is smaller than the one you have now. So I put the new smaller clown in and it's been totally successful. Apparently the larger one will dominate and become the female in time. Good Luck.
