Last night I walked past my tank and one of my ocellaris was hosting the bta! I Was in the room for an hour and when I left he went back up to the corner with his mate and slept there, is this a sign of the clownfish building an immunity to the anemone and will he just him soon? It was only one out if the pair the other one stayed in the corner

That's what clowns do. My maroon does the same thing

Clownfish are weird and there is no telling what they are thinking most of the time. My clowns play in my anemone but still sleep in the cave they have always slept in, could be building immunity or just playing but normally they will sleep together and the dominant fish decides where that is if they are bonded. If the female hosts the nem then they both are likely to
