My clownfish is just acting weird and hanging in the corner by my return.

Welcome to Reef2Reef!!

They can sometimes host odd parts of the aquarium. They will pick a spot decide its home and hang out on that spot other then feeding time. As long as there are no other symptoms like fast breathing spots or wounds that's probably what's happening.

My clowns hosted the back right corner right under my power head for quite a while til they decided they liked my Duncan better.

Clowns do weird things such as this but also confirm it’s not breathing heavy, listless, losing appetite and color

 

[bnord]

welcome and agree with the above - it it breaking weird in order to feed?

Best way I can word this, Clowns will be clowns. They will host the silicone seal if they want. No method or madness to it. Dont worry!

My clowns do this in one tank then my clowns in another tank hang out low by my cave thats built. So it happens just keep an eye on stress and breathing otherwise welcime to the r2r team and yes clowns will be clowns

Thats not extraordinary because clowns are not ordinary they do weird things and this one could be hosting just in that spot (maybe feels safe?) just make sure that its breathing normal and nothing looks different on it.

Yup. As others have stated... Clowns will be clowns. Unless you could better describe "acting weird" it just sounds to me to be normal clown behavior. WELCOME, BTW!
