    I have a couple different pairs of clowns in different tanks and each do something different than the others. I have a picasso clown that sleeps on her side at the top of my tank cube on top on my return nozzle. I always think its wierd but clowns like to do wierd things.

    Yes the tank is fully cycled, I used live sand from another aquarium and live rock, is why it only took 2 weeks to cycle. NH4-0, NO2-0, NO3-5 temp is 79, sg at 1.024

    if clowns don't have an anemone to host or don't feel comfortable hosting with any corals, a lot of the times they will actually swim against water current when they are "sleeping" or "resting", no need to worry as long as they are fine when the lights come on
