I have 4 clowns in my tank .

everyone is happy , swimming hosting in their anemone .

I have 1 clown who seems to be trying to lie down on the sand or rock - is this normal or is something wrong ?

theyve been super active but now this one seems to be just slowly swimming around ignoring everyone for the most part ?
 
My clownfish rest on the sand all the time, so I wouldn't worry about that as long as he is still eating. You may have to reduce your clownfish group to a single pair as they will start to get more aggressive and could potentially kill each other.
 
Thanks !

this was my first quick view . Besides being slightly thinner than everyone else he did eat it just seems like he’s a little more timid than his tank mates and doesn’t want to fight for food (if the others are near the surface eating he won’t join until they’ve had their fill)

I feed frozen and flake and always disperse it so everyone gets a chance - I have to anyway for my fire fish
It is most likely alright. You could keep an eye out for rapid breathing, discoloration, white stringy poop.
