After following a fallow period I added these two clownfish. They have been in the tank for about a week. They are doing great, eating and swimming with each other during the day.

At night when the lights go off it's a different storie, they have 3 anemones to choose from. First they started with my smallest anemone then they moved to my this one. It's big enough to host both but I first noticed the white around their mouth, I though ohhh no it's either ich or velvet! But after a day or two it went away. Last night I caught them fighting and biting each other, hence the battle wounds.. They only do this as night

normal clownfish behavior?
