For over 2 years my clown stayed in the top corner of my tank but yesterday my 3 year daughters found "Nemo" on the floor. I think I was more upset than they were.

This is the reason why it isn't good for clowns to hang out in a top corner.
A simple $1 ceramic flowerpot can fix this unnatural and dangerous behavior and save the clowns lives.
 
The ocelleris I owned always hosted the flexible return lines in the top corner by overflow. My clarkis however dove head first into my Haddoni like sliding into home plate and never left it until I removed them.
 
Once I took mine out of quarantine from initial purchase and put into bigger DT it swims everywhere and looks much happier. Think it was cooped up in that little 10 gallon quarantine for sure!
 
She never goes more than a few inches from her anemone, and anyone that comes within a few inches of her anemone beware!
 
My pair of clowns always hang out in the top righthand corner. When they were little they would swim all over the tank, but ever since they paired up they always stay in the corner. It's frustrating because they are the only two fish in my tank and they don't do anything other than eat and go back to the corner.
 
I have had one Oscellaris Clown since I started my tank 5yrs ago - my first fish. She swims out during the day but at night the top corner is her bedroom
