Hi all,

I recently purchased a pair of captive bred clownfish. First time purchasing captive bred. Their behaviour is very weird, but I believe since they are captive bred so they have not seen the world yet. How do I change their behaviours? or is it forever like this.

1) Have no FEAR, they don't really hide in rocks or caves. just swim openly all the time even brushing with my bigger angel and trigger like they are buddies. Not once in 24hours have I seen them even go near any rocks/caves.

2) Have no FEAR, they are not afraid of nets, they don't dart away super fast like other fishes.

3) Have no FEAR, when all lights are off at night they just sleep in the open.

Is this 1 of the reason why "they say" captive bred fishes are better? cause they have no FEAR hence least likely to be stressed and fall sick.. lol.

Is getting them to host a cave/shelter possible in time? will they automatically do it maybe after a few days or weeks? anyone have experience it before?

thanks for replies, how do you train them btw.

also my current pair when sleep. they sleep sideways at the top of the tank at the surface of the water(like dead fish).. is it weird or is it a problem? seems to keep jumping sometimes knocking the internal rim of the tank. only when sleeping, day time is normal all ok.

      WIZARD WEB RECOVERY A LEADING EXPERT IN LOST CRYPTO RECOVERY

      I never thought I'd see a penny of my stolen bitcoin again. I had invested over $150,000 in bitcoin back when it was still relatively new and unknown. As the price skyrocketed over the years, my investment grew to be worth over $400,000. One day I went to check my wallet and to my horror, the entire balance had been transferred out. My heart sank realizing all those years of watching my investment grow had been wiped away in an instant by some hacker. I frantically searched online for any way to recover stolen cryptocurrency. Most advice said there was nothing I could do if the thief took proper precautions with the private keys. Then I came across Wizard web recovery - a new web service that claims to use advanced statistical analysis to track stolen bitcoin as it gets passed around different wallets. I was skeptical but filled out their online form, explaining when and how my bitcoin was stolen. A few days later I received an email from a Wizard web recovery analyst. They had traced my stolen bitcoin to a popular exchange where the thief had cashed out. By contacting the exchange, they were able to recover my bitcoin! I was stunned. I truly never thought I'd see that money again. Thanks to Wizard web recovery brilliant web tracking, I got back every last satoshi of my $150,000 in stolen bitcoin. It was an incredible feeling to have what I thought was lost forever returned in the blink of an eye by these blockchain recovery specialists via: wizard web recovery (@) programmer(.) net
