    I'm sure that isn't an issue with ocellaris clowns, but I know some breeders that get attacked by some more aggressive breeds when they put their hands in the tank lol. Maybe they need to tame theirs.

    Great! Clownfish very active swimming everywhere... Bangaii cardinal likes to keep to himself in a corner. Is this normal? ALso everyone's eating well- i give them 1/2 brine shrimp cube (enriched) per day with some flakes on the side. Is this enough? Too much?
