Zippy the wonderfish.
I named him that because he spends the last hour of the day before lights out zooming in laps around the top of the tank just as fast as he can.
He's much darker across the top than when I got the tank? (FYI I got a 7 year old tank that had been let go badly. Everything has rebounded nicely though) I wonder what's going on? He's getting a nice varied diet and plenty of food and good lighting and good water, so I guess it means he's happy.

Another shot to show off his darkening colors. I wonder how dark he will get?

Well she is the larger of the two clowns. She thinks she rules the tank. I tell her that she doesn't really rule the tank, just the other clownfish.

that's pretty cool. every clown i have ever had has stayed in the same 12" x 12" area - only deviating during feeding

My two generally avoids the front corners and the rock pile, but swim around everywhere else like crazy fish. They do prefer the back left hand corner though, and the dominant clown is more prone to wander around the tank than the smaller one.
