Just thought id post a cool video of my 2 Clownfish it appears there is now a more dominate Clownfish and would suggest its now the female. Its definitely bigger in size as they were purchased 10 months ago and were exactly the same size back then..

What are you thoughts guessing it all normal and part of the process. Has found the devils leather hand a nice safe place.

 
On another note did notice the larger clown fish do this weird shaking infront of the smaller one and also notice the smaller one fight back a little too so not all one sided.

Over the 7 or 8 pairs of clownfish I have owned, only a few (maybe 4 or 5) of them did this when changing. The rest had a peaceful transition but I don’t doubt that there was some fighting going on in the night!

Yeah will watch tonight to see if it still goes on, been on night shift last week.

Doesnt happen often one sits the the devils leather and the other swims within a hammer coral at the bottom of the tank.
 
Well that problem has been solved. Just found what I thought was the more dominant one on the living room floor.... was looking for 10 minutes trying to find it and behold it has jumped!

Can this be explained??
