Hi All,
I bought a Mated Pair of True Percula Clowns and received them last wed (02/07)with a Ritteri Anemone. The Clowns ate and swam normally during the first 2 days. On the 3rd day the Clowns went to the Anemone and haven't left it since. When I feed the tank, I make sure the food gets in their area so they can eat and they do, especially the male.
I have noticed that the female seems to be breathing rapidly and shallowly (mouth and gill movement).
Is this a sign of a problem/disease? Is she ready to breed?
The tank specs are the same (all within reasonable specs). The other fish and animals are just fine, including the male Percula.
I would appreciate your input and experience.
Thank you.
Steven
