Clownfish at night

My clowns seem to be move active at night with only half of my night time LEDs on. But when I turn them off and turn on my 2 t5s blue/white they stay roughly in one corner. They've been in the tank for 3 days. I'd like to assume they are trying to get used to there new home but I could be wrong. One clown is 2+ years about 2/3 inches and the other is still small 0.75/1 inch.

Please somebody chim in on your experience please.
 
when it's bedtime, mine always go to the far back corner and just sort of hover together. i don't think they venture out till the room gets light in the morning. i have looked in the tank in the wee hours of the morning and they are in the same place they were when they went to bed. :)
 
Mine acted real weird like your describing when I first put him in my tank as well. It would swim like crazy at night and hide during the day. Took about a week for him to adjust to my lights and schedule and start sleeping properly. I'd just give them more time to adjust.
