New Clown pair, is this normal?

In this video linked below is this normal behavior for Clown fish? I used to run a 90 gallon tank and had a pair of clowns that seemed to be friends and hang out together but never really seemed to be a "mated pair"

After a few years away and letting my new tank cycle for a while (34 Gallon Red Sea Max 130) I jumped right in when I stumbled across what obviously seems to be a mated pair at my LFS in the tank where they were sold individually. I got this pair for $36.

Anyway, they seem to lay down and cuddle up a lot more than I would expect and a lot more than my previous pair. Sometimes completely motionless (around the :45 mark in the video) but when they move they look completely healthy to me.

Are these guys ok?

Please ignore the cloudy water and dust there is also a relatively new Goby that is sifting all my sand everywhere.

Hi. Your Tanks Looks Very New, and I am not sure if they just need each other for security, or they are not used to this new environment. They seem to be OK, but watch Them. Bruce
