Are my clowns okay?

[Gabe aqua]

Ever since I took out my blue damsel they have been sitting the corner just swimming, but today I was planning on buying a Yellow Coris Wrasse. Also the Ammonia is 0, the nitrite is 0 and the nitrate is 5 ppm

Are they eating?

Yes they are

Are they eating?

As soon as I started dropping food they began moving around now they are in the same position again.

 

[Jekyl]

Yes they are

Probably just clowns being clowns. Mine hid behind a filter for a year or 2

So I don’t need to be worried about them and adding other fish

There's always some concern. Especially if not using quarantine and with the temperament of the fish.

When you remove a fish, clowns may decide to move their nesting spot somewhere else.
When you add a fish, they may “move” as well.
They are quite picky out space.
If they eat, there fine.

On a side note, you don't need to test nitrite in a salt tank. It is irrelevant and harmless to fish.
