thnks guys for the help!!

Ever get to the reason of the clown jumping? They are not the usual candidate for jumping. Do the damsels pick on them at all or are the clowns so close in size when you add them they are battling. Seems to me they might be trying to hide from something.

I wish my maroon clown would commit kamakaze... I hate him... DIE DIE DIE you B A S T A R D

+1 on this, clowns are not your typical jumpers. Only carpet surfer I've had is a Lawnmower Blenny. Seems to me the clown is outnumbered by the other damsels (clowns are in the damsel family by the way) and they may both have jumped to get away from the harassment. Damsels are very territorial and it's usually around lights out time that the battle for a place to roost can cause problems. In a smaller tank the territory is limited and with that many damsels competing for a sleeping spot..... well.

Ha, ha and globaldesigns, I have a Maroon pair, they're bad ass and I love it. No wimpy percs or occ or whatever for me. Actually I probably have one of the more tolerant females from what I've seen, she's only taken a hit at my hand a couple of times and never drew blood. Although, she may well have been the reason one of my Lawnmower Blennies took the leap....
