My two clowns seem totally fine...they'll swim around the tank and about every 15-20 min they'll meet in the same spot every time and sit / lay on the bottom in the middle of some snail shells. After a couple of minutes they'll swim off. Anyone seen this before?

I just noticed that one of the shells actually has a hermit in it...it looks like they may be letting it clean them...is that possible?
 
Someone suggested they may be hosting? Does that sound right? Hosting in the sand around shells?

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

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

    Votes: 21 32.8%

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

    Votes: 9 14.1%

  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

    Votes: 9 14.1%

  • It depends on how badly I want the fish

    Votes: 13 20.3%

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

    Votes: 10 15.6%

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

    Votes: 12 18.8%

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

    Votes: 2 3.1%

  • I haven’t really considered this before

    Votes: 4 6.3%

  • Something else (see my comments in the thread)
