Hi currently i rebuild my 90g rimless tank and buy 2 young maroon clown fish first couple days they look ok and swim here and there in tank right now last 3 days they stay always in back of the tank and don't swim nowhere ales only in the back du you think i have problem vith flow in me tank or something different oll me parameters are fine no agrasive fish in the tank 1 chromy and 1 sand siffting goby .I use 1 mp40 in reffcrest mode and 1 koraila 500 gph plus return from sump .
 
Yeah if they are eating they should be just fine, just give them some time. Sometimes clowns just pick a spot they like and stay near it, like hosting an anemone. If they aren't eating or otherwise look unhealthy then it could be a bigger issue.
 
I wouldn't worry about anything right now. Just give them time and monitor them. Keep feeding well and keep water parameters spot on.
 
Do you have an anemone in the tank? They are the natural clownfish that always has a nem in the wild. My maroons will not stay away from their nem for long at all.
