So, I am pretty sure they are fine, but I have some Clownfish I just got, and they have explored the whole tank except for a small portion of it, and they are to only fish, but they are only staying near to the glass, and not going near my life rock. I don't know what to think of this, and probably being a little worried over nothing, but I am just curious if this means anything

Doesnt sound like anything to worry about, but if you upload a video to YouTube and post the link here we can help confirm!

Clowns don’t generally go into the rocks. They even sleep out in the water column, like in the corner of the tank or something like that

That's pretty typical, in my experience. It's my understanding that, in nature, they take a territory about the size of a basketball and don't really leave. My clowns kinda hang in the corner by the overflow, until they realize it's time to eat. They're weird, but normally so. Post a vid, if you can/want!

And for that reason I won’t be keeping clowns after the new tank is cycled. They’re too weird for me
