I’ll start this one. Went down to get man beer. Turned the lights on and herbie my lawnmower blenny is sleeping on top of my wave maker. Gotta be the weirdest place ever since he is a bottom dweller. I moved him and he was like dude why did you wake me?

It’s hard to get a good picture of it, but my puffer somehow wedges himself into the corner of the tank every night to sleep. Always in exactly the same place in the same corner. I don’t even know how he stays there all night without moving or anything.

My triggers wedge themselves all over the place, more than once i thought they were dead. Puffer is lazy and puffs enough to not have to move. Rock mover wrasse buries in the substrates
 
My 2 orchid dottybacks like to hang upside down in overhangs, i really dont know how they do it and both my frostbites sit in the right rear corner, all that rockwork but hey lets sit in the corner like a couple of naughty juniors.
 
My late cleaner wrasse would sleep jammed into a barnacle. Hippo Tang squeezes behind the skimmer intake.
I just got a Flame Angel that has claimed the spot between the HOB skimmer intake and the wall at night. Searching about that got me to this thread. Glad she's not alone. Sadly she evicted my clowns from their usual spot so they're homeless for now since none of them care for the aquascape we built for them

My blood parrot always sleeps near the slim rocks.
he looks very comfortable on those rocks.
(I don't have a picture because he is not sleeping right now)

My starry blenny sleeps regularly on top of my gyre

My wrasse just picks wherever looks comfortable at night. Couldn’t tell you how many times my wife has came running upstairs telling me he’s dead lol

I always thought that firefish were supposed to go into caves to sleep, but one of mine just lays on the sand out in the open every night. I definitely thought it was dead the first time I saw it doing that.
 
My clownfish sleep against the weir on my overflow. Like stuck against it. A few times I’ve shut the pump off to ensure they are alive. When I do they casually start swimming.
My cleaner wrasse has found some deep holes in a rock and you can barely see his mouth sticking out. He is in the left hole of the two larger holes in the middle, bottom part of the rock.

My asfur angel and purple tang both sleep against the wall underneath my frag rack; always amuses me to see the tang lie down next to the angel.

trigger fish use the spine located on the top of their head to "lock" themselves in holes and whatnot in the wild. nothing too out of the ordinary for triggers
 
My Ruby Mandarin sleeps on the sand bed in the direct center of my tank, about an inch off the sand bed. There’s a dead spot there and he just levitates there... I’ll have to get a picture tonight
 
I love the lawnmower sleeping by the power head. Had one that did the exact same thing. Lol I have 2 clowns that sleep less than 2 inches from my BTA, but could care less about it any other time of the day.
