Hello all,
I'm currently 4 days into owning 4 Ocellaris i added to a fresh aquarium setup. I'm currently fowlr, but do plan on maturing to coral later on. I have about 60lbs of live rock in a 55 gallon with around 2 inches of sand. I have two pretty strong power-heads, and my sump return for flow. Probably a total theoretical of around 7500 l/h. Now this could be too much if it is even that high in reality.
My issue
----------
The 4 clowns are doing very well as far as eating, so far gone through around 8 feedings. During the day they seem to really enjoy the water flow, swimming back and forth between the two main currents i have set up. They don't venture into the rocks much, which i do find odd. These are little guys (about 0.75"-1"). Now during the day they swim away, but at night i'm noticing this bizarre behavior of sleeping in the corner of the tank glass. All 4 pile on top of each other and they do their sleep thing on top of my thermometer. Its funny looking haha. Attaching pictures.
Is my current too high? It is higher i guess for little fish like this. But they don't seem to mind it, like i said they seem to enjoy it, often jumping in-front of the powerhead to do some fast swimming.
Eating habits are good, they are lively, by all accounts they seem healthy to me other than their sleeping form haha.
