    Sometimes My Clown just "rests" on the sand for a few seconds then goes back to normal swimming. Is this normal?

    I wouldn't say anything about clowns is normal lol. They do some silly stuff. I would say this though, I have a mocha clown that will lay on his side on the sand until the snowflake nudges him to get him moving lol.

    Lately a lot of my snails have been dying (3 in the past week). They fall on their backs then the emerald crab or hermit eats them. And one of the hermits now has a snail shell :p

    You can see them munching on my Turbo here.

    I have the same problem in my tank with the hermits. Usually they do this to get a bigger shell though.
