How does a percula clown sleep?

[greymach]

Hi, i just got a perc clown today and i dont have any anenomes. The lights have been out for about an hour and he is just swimming around still. I had damsels and they would go in the rocks when the lights go out to sleep. I was wondering what perc clowns do when they sleep but dont have an anenome? Thanks.

One of mine sleeps in his feather duster but the other one kind of wiggles in place all night.

I thought the same thing at first. It doesn't seem very restful. The first time I saw my clown on his side in his feather duster I thought he died, because he was always wiggling all night.

I have had my clowns for years and they always wiggle around all night in their host....Must be sleep swimming.
