Clown fish swimming on its side.
Hi guys. I have a clown fish, and for some reason the last 2 days she has been swimming slightly tilted towards either side of her body. I am just wondering if she is sick or is this normal. It is not all the time, but I would say 80% of the time she is tilted one way or another.

She looks healthy, is eating well, is swimming around the tank as usual. Only lilted slightly. It changes between left and right.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

I wouldn't be surprised with clown fish. They are the most boring fish of the marine world IMO I've had numerous pairs and they all act similar, that and they will just sit in one corner of the tank!

I guess hosting and leaning on everything has a draw back.

Mine wasn't a leaning slacker, she had a big chomping "F-U" sign ready every-time I threatened to put my hand in. Typical woman, bleed you dry and then keep the house..lol
