Clown stirring up sand

[G_Sanab922]

So I recently got a True Perc and it's a female. Almost every day during the night time she stirs up my sand. in the back in the same area. Why is this happening? Should I get her an anemone? It's getting a bit annoying constantly having cloudy water.

It's common behavior & just cleaning it's 'territory'. All you can do is get used to it.

Mine do the same thing...sand, rocks, coral. Basically anything not glued down near my nems will be pushed around by my clowns.
