Hey,

So I rehomed a breeding pair of clowns around 6 years old.

It’s been nearly two months and the make practically spends the whole day attacking his own reflections in the glass. I have checked looking at an angle inside the tank and it’s so reflective nearly mirror like so I don’t blame him.

Is there anyway of getting him to stop without putting black paper up against the glass as that will not allow me to see them and the tank which is the whole point of starting a reef?

Any other solutions?

Thanks in advance
