Did you quarantine them to make sure they were healthy before putting them into your display tank?
Clowns are usually very good eaters, they could have ich but I'm leaning more towards brooklynella which causes respiratory distress and loss of appetite.

All the parameters were good when the fish went into the tank. I'll check them again tomorrow morning and post the results here. I didn't quarantine them as they are the only fish in the tank at the moment, and I don't have room for a quarantine tank. Am I going to be in for a hard time without one?

Fed them tonight using the garlic and feeding them cyclopeeze. One of them went nuts for the food, and the other one was like "look, stuff is hitting me on the head. . ." I did notice something odd, and now that WhoPoopWrasse mentions sickness I'm worried about it. They appear to sort of do a little dance thing. They arch sideways and jitter quickly. It only lasts a short time, and both are doing it. They also flutter their pectoral fins quickly in little burst from time to time. So, sickness or usual clown behavior? Man, I'm starting to feel like I'm in way over my head and these are my first fish . Thanks for the help though, and keep it coming, I'm going to need it.
