My clownfish does that as well . in the morning he goes by the transparent glass then at night they go to the black part and just float they're so interesting to watch. I should have gotten two but I was afraid to increase the ammonia level in such a new tank. he hasnt touched my corals.. thought hed make it as a homeMy pair sleep above the skimmer intake and surf the area there because they can stay in that area without much movement needed. Then when lights come on they move back down to the right side of my tank and stay there for 12 hours.
Well definitely get a 2nd clown together they are even weirder. The one you added 1st will probably be the dominant 1 since he knows the area.thats what my clownfish does as well . in the morning he goes by the transparent glass then at night they go to the black part and just float they're so interesting to watch.

Two would’ve been okay. They are small/lower bio-load on the tank. People typically get them in pairs. It’s good to wait like a week or two before adding additional tank mates. Since the clown didn’t qt or get dipped definitely recommend waiting a while and monitor for anything before adding more.thats what my clownfish does as well . in the morning he goes by the transparent glass then at night they go to the black part and just float they're so interesting to watch.

For sure anything with chloride and fluorine and heavy metals are a no noAnd never add the copper treatment to the display tank.
Yeah I agree. I would wait 30days.Two would’ve been okay. They are small/lower bio-load on the tank. People typically get them in pairs.

Wait for dipping the fish, does it have to he in a tank? I dipped my corals in a bowl lolFor sure anything with chloride and fluorine and heavy metals are a no no
Even annehyde and praziquantul can irritate inverts so if you do medicate also rinse fish in display water(separate container)pour out half)and re drip in order to not contaminate and pollute the water column
I'd give em 10 to 12 hours (12-12 new method) for optimum growth and coloration what you are doing is good because it will give the fis and coral time to acclimateTurned on the moonlight for this photo. The clownfish is now back to the black part and i think it will be sleeping soon since my lights turned off as well. I run it from 2-10 PM
Dip the fish in a separate container and then dip in water to remove the copper treatment prior to returning the fish to the tank.Wait for dipping the fish, does it have to he in a tank? I dipped my corals in a bowl lol
Perfect method if you can't set up a hospital tankDip the fish in a separate container and then dip in water to remove the copper treatment prior to returning the fish to the tank.
Yes you want to mimic nature with light schedule. Do your lights have a sunrise/sunset setting? You also want to be sure to have the proper white/colored light percentages for the corals as to not bleach them and provide optimum health.I'd give em 10 to 12 hours (12-12 new method) for optimum growth and coloration what you are doing is good because it will give the fis and coral time to acclimate
