Can not find a second fish. Please Help!

The Story:
I have a 14 gallon Oceanic Biocube. Live Rock, Sand and a lot of corals. No SPS. I have 1 Saddleback Clown, 2 sexy shrimps and 1 cleaner shrimp. The Saddleback Clown was the first fish I bought. The second fish I got was a Six Line Wrasse. He was cool and they got along. Except he had the problem of jumping into the back section of the tank into where the pump was. And got killed 2 months ago when he got sucked into the return of the pump and almost killed the rest of my tank. Lol. So I decided I needed another fish and got another Wrasse, not a sixline. I forgot the name. Anyways almost immediately the Clown would chase him all around the tank, like daily. He somehow got himself caught in a rock and was dying, but i saved him. 6 days later he was dead at the bottom of the tank. I want another fish, I know, crazy. Please help.

UGH...saddleback owns that tank...May not be able to put another fish in there at all (try and pair it up with another saddleback). If you want multiple fish I would take the clown out and go with some small gobies or blennies...Or a pair of clwns from the start...

rearrange the rock before you put one next time and that will distrupt his territory. As far as fish I am partial to the ocellaris clown myself. I just put a second one in mine 12 nano to try and pair them and they are doing well together already.
