Is my Clownfish sad? =(

[zamboni200000]

The last few weeks my clownfish has been acting different. He's stays in 1 small corner of the tank probably like 95% of the time. He never explores anymore. He never socializes with the other fish anymore.

He IS eating fine. I don't see any spots or anything on him.

Any suggestions? Should I get him an anemone? My other fish are pretty peaceful except for an angry bullying type royal gramma but I don't think he's bothering the clown. Water parameters are great, it's a 50g breeder. Everyone else and corals are happy and healthy.

Any help or advice much appreciated!
Thank you

No he probably has just found that area to be cozy and likes to hang out there. Don't get an anemone unless you truly want one and are ready for one. If you do, get one that is a natural host to the type of clownfish you have if you want them to bond.

My two clownfish hang out in the back corner without an anemone. As long as he's eating then it just means he found his spot, clowns are like that. I'd avoid an anemone unless you know what you're getting into. There are lots of horror stories about them.
