Clowns sitting on bottom of tank

[tbb29]

Bought a pair of clowns last week. Put them in QT to treat them for possible internal parasites that the female showed signs of. It seems like when I’m not there they chill on the bottom of the tank. But once they see me they are up and around. They eat well, am I just overthinking?

Clowns can be very goofy fish. If they are eating normally then I wouldn't worry about it.

Make sure your tank has good surface friction , so water is well oxygenated . Have you checked the parameters in the QT tank

 

[tbb29]

Yeah water parameters checkout. And I have an air stone. Had a wave maker in there but it was pretty overpowering for the size of the tank

Both of my clown pairs hover in the same spot almost all day and night. They only swim to the front of the tank when it’s feeding time.
