We’ve had our tank now for 2 months. It’s has been established and I am looking for some information regarding my two clown fish. I have a male and female. And the male and female have been loving there environment. Along with the snails and hermit crabs.
My concern or question is I have noticed that the female has not been swimming around like she normally does and seems to be guarding this one spot nestled under some live rock. Does anyone know what this may be pertaining to?

She’s been guarding this area for two days now. I’ve done some research and I think she may possibly be looking to lay eggs.

Ive also read the eggs usually do not make it in a tank environment due to certain specific conditions.

I am looking to see if there may be any other reasons for this behavior that I should be concerned with. Does anyone have any input?
