Only explanation that i have is that this is tank born clowns, and they behavior is totaly different than wild...

I had wild ones, 4 of them, they hosted anemone instanlty, from bag into water into anemone, in second.... They swim all over the place, behave much agresivly when feeding, this tank born is probably get used to large group of them in tight spaces, low flow....

I have a pair of ocellaris that were bought as three-quarter inch babies, ORA tank bred. I’ve had them now for three years. The wiggling and brushing habit is a genetic thing. My two guys do it in any patch of hair algae that I allow to grow, ON THEIR SIDE OF THE TANK. They like to stay on one side of the tank, but when I’m feeding my copper band live black worms, they come right over to the other side. From what I’ve read, the best anenome for ocellaris clowns is the Magnifica.
