    ok.. over time my clown pair have dug the corner of my tank to the bare bottom because every night they sit there wiggle in two spots, so i left it that way for awhile cause i was tired of moving the sand back...

    well instead i put a huge clump of new sand in its spot and loook what they did again within 2 days.

    ugh, do any of you have this problem? any solutions?

    My clowns do the same thing though its in the back corner. I just let them have at it, it seems to be in there nature to do this.

    Babies on the way

    My clowns do this right before they lay eggs on the glass or they use a rock that's nearby.

    The anemone backs out of the way and they spend about 7-10 days fanning the eggs.

    They always dig this hole first even if there's one already there.
