Clownfish sprints

[darkdrako]

The larger of my pair of clownfish has been digging in the front right corner of the tank while the smaller is at the back of the tank. Maybe they are getting ready to spawn? To the left of the hole, it will swim very close to the sand and then takes off towards the corner as fast as it can. So now there is a strip of sand that looks like a trough and a nice area dugout in the corner. Anyone else see this behavior as far as the sprinting? I'll try to get some pics of the holes later tonight.

I've never seen nor heard about that in particular, but it is interesting. They do dig sometimes to clear a space for their eggs.. Not sure why they'd make a trough though..

My gold stripe female is always blasting sand all over. They spawn every two weeks or so.

no, they are black and white percs. I'll try to get a video of it the next time she does it
