Hi, below is a link to my 20 Gallon Reef Tank. I have had it set up for about six months. The tank is finally settling down and I have put in about all the corals I can fit. I have had larger tanks before but decided to go smaller because they are easier to take maintain. This tank has a light load with only two orange storm clownfish. I don't plan to add any more livestock as I want to make it easier to keep the algae away. Thanks for looking.

Nice! The aquarium and its inhabitants look happy and healthy.

Looks like you have the classic 'clownfish hanging around the powerhead' situation. I had this when I added a small male Oscellaris, but this behavior stopped when I added his mate. Hard to predict how captive bred Clownfish will behave, but sometimes a third fish (different species) will break this behavior pattern if it becomes a concern.

Thank you for the comment. Yeah, I got them when they were really small so they hung out there because it was a little calmer area. Hopefully, they will move around more when they get bigger.
