When my clowns were in the 75g, they claimed the back left corner as theirs. They slept there and spent most of their time there. In the 14g, they have MUCH less room, but they have claimed the back left of the tank as theirs. They sleep there as well, but swim the whole tank as there isn't much room. Im curious to see where they claim in the 35g, because the back left corner is an overflow...

Probably the back left corner!! Theyre so goofy when little.

Its funny when i first added my clowns they would surface skim the length of the 3 ft tank like they were surfing and never really picked a spot except to sleep. Then they found the Nem and rarely ever move now.

Oh ok..

They might sleep on their side and swim really weird when they first wake up too. Even upside down. Normal for them. Don't stress.

My BTA is still really small, so they don't go in. They do hang out around it, tho it's probably coincidence that it's in the back left corner... Once the 35g is cycled I'll move Maui over first as he's the toughest fish I have, also he's the most docile. Yea, the eel is the quiet one. Then the clowns and nem go in so we can see where the nem settles. I have a spot I'd like it to stay, but fully expect it to walk around. Then we stock with coral.
