Question about my ocellaris clown

WesMeeks · Dec 27, 2011

just got my ocellaris and he seems to spend a lot of time swimming at the top of the tank. Do they normally do this?

How much flow do you have in the tank? Is the surface of the water getting much movement? What is your Ammonia at?

Flow is great. 0 ammonia. All params are great.

Give the fella a little time to adjust to the new place. It is common for new clowns to spend the first few days (or weeks) at the surface (usually in a corner).

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

It depends on how badly I want the fish

Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

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

I haven’t really considered this before

Something else (see my comments in the thread)
