Hi, Just realised that my paired black occellaris is fighting... The male is being chased to one side of the tank by the female and the female is staying by the anemone... Havent seen this before...
They have been with me for more than 6 months... Getting along very well, always hang around each other and sleep in the same anemone... They are also having "dry run" every now and then...
Anyone experienced this before...
 
My pair does this occassionally... marital bickering:p My female chases the male away... then accepts him back later. She's a 'you-know-what'. hehe.

Everything otherwise OK? Are they intermittently making up and fighting? Both fish eating?

Newreeflady is most likely right. But, keep an eye on them.

My pair had so much marital bickering that my female indirectly killed the male -- he jumped out of the tank to get away from her. (( Reminds me of my ex-wife. ;) ))

So, as long as it isn't too much fighting don't worry. But, just keep an eye on them.
 
She's just keeping her place in the heirarchy. Normal. Like todd said though watch em make sure it doesn't become too out of hand/prolonged.
 
My Ocellaris seem to go through phases....they'll be all peachy for a couple weeks and then the female will be harsh for a few days. Always balances back out though.
