I got a mated pair of clownfish 3 months ago and everything was fine they would sleep up in the corner of the aquarium together, but then I thought I should get a pot to encourage them to breed and to have a nest. I got the pot about a month and a half ago, a week after I got it the clownfish both "found it" and made it their home, the female now sleeps in but the male still sleeps up in the corner. When its day they both hang around the pot and don't usually stray far from it (except to eat) but EVERY time at night the female sleeps in the pot and the male in his corner. Is the female pushing him out or is the male just not used to the pot?
 
Clowns are weird. I personally wouldn't worry about it, especially if they are getting along during the day. Heck some married couples have separate bedrooms!!!
