So has anyone ever found there clown upside down in a nem. I happen to look in my tank and was surprised to find mine doing it. I tried to get a picture but it isn't easy to get with just moon light. Tried with the flash on. got nothing but glare and turn on my light which woke it up.

Turn out that light !!!!!!!!!

My clowns have claimed an overhang in my scape. The male is always upside down under the ledge. Even at night. He swims normal as well but when he goes to the ledge he flips

I've thought my clown was dead inside my BTA a few times. No movement, laying on its side. Put some food in, and she awoke!!

My male clown used to sleep upside down all the time, they don't host anything except the back glass tho. But I wondered what it was doing and if it wasn't somewhat moving I would have thought it was dead for sure. They definitely do some crazy/ scary things from time to time tho.
