Fish sleep schedules

[PirateToast]

So... my yellow coris wrasse and diamond goby are super active and friendly during the day. When I'm home for lunch, they are always swimming all around the tank. However, by the time I get home from work, they're pretty much in bed for the night.

I can't get home for lunch every day, so I'm worried they could miss feedings.

Is there a way to make them be more active when I'm home?

get a timer for your lights and adjust it to when you are home...

^+1 what he said! My lights don't come on each day until 1pm and turn off at 9pm solely because I want to be able to see the tank when I'm home

My lights are running 9-8 on my freshwater tanks. Now and then I'll see something sleeping off in a corner, but usually everything is awake all day.
My saltwater tank isn't on a timer, but it usually has the lights on from 10-8.
