    Being that i have a BB tank, i know exactly where mine sleep. Clown: Back left bottom corner. Goby: right side island, under the rocks, and the wrasse is so new that ive found its mucus in several places on the left island. Its fun to search for em at night. lol

    Absolutely. :)

    The cleaner wrasse has a hole in a rock that's just large enough to turn around in; The yellowtail damsel sleeps in a small den in the rockwork just right of center, near the bottom; The domino hides behind the blushing finger leather, and the three-stripe (tank boss) sleeps wherever he darn well pleases. lol (but usually somewhere close to the toadstool).

    My two clowns sleep on the surface of the water sideways on top of the small powerhead, my angel sleeps in the middle of my large rock and is the last one to wake when the lights come on, and my blue hippo sleeps sideways in a small cave behind a frgospawn. They all go to the same place every night and stay there until the lights come on in the morning

    My mandarin, sleeps in the same place each night. Body on the sand, head on a small outcrop of rock. He looks pretty comfy.

    My bicolor blenny is the only one in my tank who's 100% predictable - always in a little cave under a rock near the top of the pile. Royal Gramma has a couple different spots in little crevices - usually sideways, upside down, backwards. The clowns are all over the place, and so is the Cardinal. And the six line pretty hard to find, and seems to be a different spot every night. I've only caught him sleeping once, in his mucous bag, and thought he was dead. Wasn't in the same spot the next night or since.
