One of my two ocellaris is exhibiting a new behavior today. The female of the pair has found a shallow niche in some live rock. She backs into it, gently rubs against it, hovers slightly above it, and finally rests in it, completely motionless for about one second before swimming off like nothing ever happened. She has done this many times over the past 8 hours or so. The male of the pair has been in his usual spot all day, hovering in his fake-plant "host".
These clowns are fairly small, the female is maybe 2 inches and the male is about 1 1/2 and generally smaller-bodied. We've had them since July.
The male has just joined her for the first time at the spot, there was some brief quivering from both of them, and they both swam away. She has returned a few times since, but the male hasn't gone over there again. Any idea whats going on here?
