Hello,
I'm new to keeping clownfish and I noticed my clownfish acting weird. I don't really know what's going on and I can't find anything online to explain it. I thought at first it was just the behaviors of establishing who's dominate but then I noticed the bigger clownfish also twitching and talking to the little one. I just don't understand why they go from swimming and "dancing" around together and coping each other's moves to the little one being backed into a corner. I just don't want the little guy to have to spend his life forced into a corner. I have a video but am running into some trouble uploading it. Any information or ideas are very appreciated. Thank you.
 
Sounds like normal clown fish behaviour
 
Sounds like normal behaviour for clowns who are establishing territory :) Will get better over time

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
