I took my rbta away from my clarkii pair and now the female has parked herself on the bottom of the tank next to a small rock and won't move. I have not seen her eat but she is still quite fat. They were spawning like clockwork before and I wondered if having messed up their schedule has stressed out the female? Is this typical with spawning pairs?
Clarkii post anemone depression?

IME, yes this does happen. When I QT a spawning pair they didn't start spawning again until 2 months after I put them into DT.
Poor clownfish, I feel bad for her. I hope she's not having suicidal thoughts. On the bright side, it's good that she is hanging out at the bottom, rather than the top.

The male is hanging out with her, and he was pretty sad at first but has gotten over it. I was concerned that I was going to lose one or both of them, but she doesn't seem to be in any distress, just not interested in anything right now. Maybe some flowers and a box of chocolates?
