I have had a apparent established pair of tank grown false percula clownfish for about 2 years now, they are hiding behind the rocks constantly, only briefly coming out to eat. My tank does not have much traffic by it, so all the fish are somewhat shy, but the rest do come out after initial fright.
I have a bubble anemone , I dont really expect the fish to live in it anymore, but would be nice to see them more often. They also are behind the rocks even when there is noone in the room, I've peeked around the corner before entering the room. Any ideas? I think they just picked a spot to live by, it just happens to be behind the rocks...

Tank is 75 gallons and has quite abit of live rock.

I would be willing to bet that this is your pair's chosen nesting area. Once clownish start reproducing , they keep going and going ......until you move one small rock. :lolspin:
