Twitching clowns

[scubachris]

Ok I am at a loss. I have a 29g set up and running for 2 1/2 months. I have 2 clowns and one cromie fish in there. My clowns just started to twitch. They swim for a while, then one twitches, then the other does it. It happens every so often. Any ideas on why? Water tests good on all tests. Any suggestions? Anyone else have the same thing going on?

Nothing to worry about ... the twitching is part of the dominance routine.

i agree with bigarn, I have noticed my clowns doing it too. So it must be "normal" haha.

yep ... the more dominant one will become the female. kind of fits doesn't it?

Yea it does make sense. Thanks. I bought them already paired from the lfs. One is larger than the other, so I assumed one was female already, but who knows. Thanks
