My tank is about 6 weeks old and has cycled. I have two clownfish who are very stationary. They are very lively but do not swim around much. They tend to hide together near the rocks. I was thinking some anemone may bring out the life in them. At what point do you think my tank will be ready for anemone? What kind should I start with? And do you think it will create more activity in the clownfish?

what are your water perimeters (nitrate nitrite ammonia PH)???
that could be the reason for the clowns being lazy!!!

All test levels for nitrate, nitrite, ammonia and ph are perfect. The salinity and the specific gravity are perfect as well. the temperature is steady between 77.5 and 88.2 at all times. The only time the become active is when I put brine shrimp in the tank. The smaller one really wants to move around but the larger female doesn't move much. Any suggestions?

what light do you have ? anemones can be very hard to keep your clown fish will be just fine with out one clown fish behave that way with or with out an anemone and getting one there is no garanty (spelling) your clown will host it not to discourage you or anything. is six months your total salt water experiance? i would try an easier invert or coral first
