Although I've never seen my Clown eat flake, he does come out when flake is being added to the tank, so it could be true.

The driftwood & algae tabs are esseential.

Thats his cave. He sits in there almost all day (unless food is added) and munches that cave bigger and bigger.

I don't mean they would go the surface for flake food, but I wouldn't be surprised if they would clean up leftovers.

Good, I haven't even seen mine in about a month. He's my shyest fish by far.
