questions re: new clownfish pair / MP40ws

Clowns naturally only stay in a small area. it's fine, they're not a distance swimming fish.
Mine almost never cross to the right side of the tank (furthest from the MP10)
they stay on the right and near the nem.

Ok thanks. On to getting them to eat. I dropped some brine shrimp in there (will also use flakes) and they just floated everywhere around them, but I don't think either of the little guys took a bite.

Hopefully they'll be better acclimated tomorrow and start eating.

When I first got my clowns, soaking the shrimp in garlic seemed to be the only way to get them eating. I guessed they stressed a bit in the move and they needed a bit of a kick start. They eat fine now. You might try that if they continue not eating.
