So I know its kinda dead horse but I just can't find anything similar to what I am experiencing. So...here goes. I have two Tomato Clowns that I got when they were very little about 2 months ago. Since they have been introduced into the tank they have both acted very oddly. The smaller of the two will venture out into the tank and swim pretty normal while there. But it then returns to the right rear corner of the tank where is will swim facing down all the way in the corner.
Issue child 2. The bigger of the two doesn't leave behind the filter. Not too worried about that...what I am worried about is how it swims sideways. It pretty much will swim back and forth across the top of the tank against the back glass. It does venture out every so often..when it does it swims normally. But then right back behind the filter and sideways it goes...
They both will eat like pigs if you let them. No heavy breathing that I can see. No signs of issues as in ick or anything weird...well outside of the swimming.
Tank is about 3 months old. Small button polyp frags acting fine, two pajama cardinals acting fine as well. A couple of hermit crabs and a turbo snail all acting good. pH levels are right at 8.0, Ammonia is at 0, Nitrites at 0, Nitrates showing 0. Salinity showing right at 1.025. The fish were acclimated over about 20 minutes to 30 minutes and they are actually growing pretty fast...guessing its cause they like to eat.
Any ideas...should I be worried? I'll toss a picture up as well. Thanks for any help!
