Clownfish deep in the rocks and not eating

[tnm_ka]

So I have two Clownfish (both Gold nugget maroons) and they've just been hiding deep in the rocks at the bottom of the tank. They've also not eaten or swam around like any other of my fish. Anyone know why this is happening?
My water parameters are on point except for Calcium which I'm a little low on (320ppm)

There is nothing here to go on. Please advise how old is the tank, how long have the clowns been in the tank, what other fish are in the tank? Parameters. Pictures help a lot too. Need lots of clues to give the best suggestions.

Tank is around 3-4 years old and it's an 18gal. The clowns have been in the tank for around almost the same age as the tank and I also have a six line wrasse in there as well.
Water perameters
pH-8.0 (Hanna)
Alkalinity-8.6 (Salifert)
Calcium-320ppm (Hanna)
Magnesium-1951 (Salifert)
Iodine-0.08 (Salifert)
Phosphate-0.11 (salifert)
It's kinda hard to take a pic of em but the male one has his head sticking out and the female is resting deep under the rock. I can't rlly get a pic from the side of the tank cuz they shy away real quick

Welcome to Reef2Reef!

Can you provide a clear video taken under white lights?
Are they breathing rapidly?
Are they still feeding?
Could it be that they have built a nest?

Not enough information about the behavior of the fish and how and when it has changed. Pictures are not adequate to evaluate.

The cause for their hiding could range from positive (perhaps they have laid eggs and are defending) to negative (one of a multitude of illnesses.).

I can't get a video of em arm because it's pretty late at my place (23:29) and I don't wanna stress em out by turning the lights on so I'll try to get the video tomorrow. The clownfish are both breathing at a pretty normal rate and I still have trouble getting them out to go and eat. I did some research and found out that clownfish like to hide at the bottom of the tank when the temperature is too cold so I'll try raising mine up from 24 Celsius to 26. I'm not sure if they're building a nest because it's nowhere near my lta which the female clownfish did host a while ago

So I couldn't get the video under white light as requested but I took a closer look and the clownfish were laying eggs! Right when I was just about to move them to a bigger tank
