So I’ve had my clownfish for 2-3 months now and I’d say for the last month or so they have been swimming majority of the time like this it seems like. Mainly in the spit behind the overflow pumps and swimming in one spot pointing downwards. They eventually swim around but more often than not I find them like this. Is this normal?
 
Sounds like normal clownfish behavior
 
Awesome to hear. Only been in the saltwater tank hobby about 6 months now and learning something new everyday so figure I should ask questions now before I have to experience less bad things later. But thanks!
