So I bought a pair of Ocellaris on Saturday and im very please with them. The last pair of clowns I had werent all that great. They didnt move around the tank very much, they stayed in the same corner day and night, never did anything else, this pair is doing much better I feel. 1 question I have, what does it suggest behavior wise when 1 of them kinda swims on its side and like shudders/shakes. It does it while its just freely swimming, and also both of them have been hanging out around my candy cane coral that I have which I am also pleased with, but the 1 clown does the same around the heads of the CCC? can somebody explain what this behavior is? thanks in advance.
 
This is a good sign (it should be the smaller of the two) that the clowns are pairing up and establishing dominance.

hopefully they'll be spawning for you in due time!
 
They are really small, only about maybe nickle size each one, it is the smaller of the 2 that is acting like this, does that mean its the male or female?
