Hi guys,

I've a mater pair of ture clown but no anemone.

After lights off, the clown fish will swim near to the water surface

and hang arnd there, i preesume sleeping. :huh:

Is this normal? Coz other fishes will go into the hiding in the LR.

I had a tunze running 24x7 so the water is pretty chopping near

the surface. Do u think i need to switch off the tunze at night

to give the clown fish better sleep? :ph34r:

How and where does ur clown fish sleep?

cheers

My two clowns also hangs around the top corner while sleeping... been doing that since I introduce them into the tank in July.

Think they like the choppy water cos always see them 'smiling' while swimming in front of the water current :D

Hi JEm

So they might be mating? With the pump??!! or setting the home at the pump?? haha

usually at night when clowns sleep, they can be any part of the tank. Sometimes mine is near the seio(near the top) or at the sand bed. Their movment is like what i said very wigglely, like doing slow belly dancing :D:D

Weird, then when the anemone came they all slept inside. Heh.
