Clownfish Corners

[jhov2324]

My clownfish seems to just swim up and down the corners, the only time he leaves the corner is to eat and to go to the other side of the tank corner, is he just clowing around or is something wrong,

 

[clown123]

he might be getting chased in the corner by another fish n is now scared!

 

[jhov2324]

he is the only fish in the tank, besides the cleaner shrimp, and he just chills under a ledge

 

[clown123]

maybe thats just his spot

 

[jhov2324]

I'm guessing so, he looks comfortable there, so can I say that my clownfish is hosting my tank corner

 

[clown123]

yea try to get a anenome though

 

[jhov2324]

I would like too, but i'm not very experienced with them, i'll have to do research on them before getting one, would a perc, host a bubble tip, or haitian pink tip,

yeah it would and clown fish pic our a spot in the tank and hang there and most of the time just stoked to be there! shes fine by the way if u didnt know this its a girl cause its in a tank by its self so it is (just wanted u to know for naming purposes)
if u want to get another it has to be of the same species and it has to be smaller then the one u have and a smaller one in the tank at the lfs if its a bigger one or the only one in the tank at the lfs wait till they get a new shippment it will be the male
wait till ur tank is atleast 6 monthes old before getting an anemone and make sure u have 4-5 watts per gallon of lighting
good luck

but i don't care about the names and she won't know the difference anyway, thanks,
