    Forgive me if you posted this information already but what kind of clowns do you have and what kind of anemone did you try to pair them with? Not all clowns will take to all anemones.

    More jumpers! Wow, maybe they are getting harassed?

    I had this problem once! I atually think it was due to my Brital Star trying to eat it at night! (That eventually happened) so it could be from someone harrasing it.

    the clowns and one goby are the only fish and there are no other inhabitants other than snails and hermit crabs... the goby lives under a rock and goes there at night... I tested the PH level today... it is around 7.8 (api) or 8.0 (red sea)... a little low according to the test kit...
