it seems my mandarin has migrated to the other side of the tank and has stayed there. he ventures up and down a bit on the hidden side of the live rock.

i haven't seen him venture around the whole tank hunting for food.

does this sound like normal behavior or something to be concerned about?

i don't have agressive fish in the tank (orange goby, yellow watchmen, tiny damsel (not agressive), 2 clowns, and a LN butterfly)
