my new clown

[jessieandbecca]

WE got a new clown today from the local fish store...which we were very impressed with. Anyway we got aclown fish...a perc i think....he's a little darker than most clown fish i have seen...but he's beautiful jsut the same...any whoo...he's staying close to the top of the tank in the corner. is that normal? is he jsut adjusting? we also got ayellow tang and he's pretty much mad ehimself at home....we are jstu worried about the clown....

How did you acclimate the clown ? Clowns can be territorial and will stay in one side most of the time .
It can take a few days to a week for the fish to be comfy with the new surroundings . As long as the fish eats , you should be good .

we acclimated jsut the way the store told us too...well he said the bag method...so i looked it up online....i relly do think he is ok jsut still learning his new digs....i was jsut making sure...he's nto breathing hard or anything....he's switched to the other side of the tank now too./
