Default Clownfish always hiding

Hey guys,

I have had my Cinnamon Clownfish for about 3 years now and about 6 months ago he started hiding all the time during the day. He also gets easily frightened, and a lot of times won't even come out of hiding during feeding time. At night, he swims around the tank and lays around in his anemone the entire time.

His only tank mates are some hermit crabs and a Randall's Goby that has been with him the entire 3 years.

I hate to sound cruel, but I like a lot of activity in my tank, and with him hiding the entire time the lights are on, I am inclined to return him to a pet store in exchange for another clown.

If anyone has had a clownfish act like this, or has any suggestions, please feel free to share.
