My female is getting super fat and just kinda basking in her cove on the bottom of the tank.
Prior they have been active and in recent few days been kinda doing the dance.
Is she about to lay eggs?
The male is constantly going in to check on her but she not doing much but laying around. It started yesterday.
 
My female clowns never stopped activity prior to a spawn.
If the pair is going to spawn you should see cleaning behavior by both clowns.

Maybe she is just stressed. Hope she's going to be ok.
 
Clowns are weird.
Is this an established pair?

Bought as mated pair not to long ago but never seen them mated or spawn.
They where definitely doing the dance.
Moved them to new table less current found a dead clam in it.
Prior to that she was happy and ready for sure.
She's fat I'm hoping she bounces back.
Just found the dead clam earlier!
 
Clowns shimmy and shake naturally during communication. Might just be a dominance issue.
I would watch her.
Like I said clowns are weird.
If a newer tank check basic chem.
