Clownfish war

For the past three weeks the two Clarkii that I
purchased together got along like peas and carrots.
Now all of a sudden they're at each other like worst
enemies. Before I bought them I noticed they swam
together and wouldn't stay away from each other for
more than a few seconds. It's been the same since intro
to my 75 FOWLR (tests are fine), anyone have a clue?

Could they be fighting over an territory in the tank? Like a certain cave or
outcropping?

No, they fight over the entire area. They mainly
end up in a corner nipping at each other.

Right now one of them is swimming around
like normal while the other is hanging out in a corner
in a vertical position swimming up and then floating
back down and then repeating that over and over,
occasionally swimming out and then back to the
vertical.
