Hi sounds like the clown is swimming reasonably normally:) they are certainly unlike other fishes in how they swim! Good idea for the xenia:) like most things in the hobby you can ask a thousand questions but until you actually try it you will never know if it works or not:):fish2:

Lol not smart!!

So if we add a coral this weekend, what type should we get?
 
Congrats on the new fish. I love clowns and have 2 semi Picasso And 2 black and whites.

As for corals, what's your lighting setup again?

Cool! They swim weird! Haha

We have a 2 bulb power compact? We just want the low light stuff. Our xenia is thriving
 
PrettyFishies said:
Kenya tree, mushrooms, toadstool, cabbage leather

And these would be good first corals that our lights are good enough for?

Could we get a frogspawn maybe?
 
Those are all soft corals and very hardy. They would work well with low light. Frogspawn would need better lighting.
