Stupid Clown fish swiming on its side

Hi,

 

For the past 3 days i have noticed one of my clowns swimming on its side up against the glass. He looks to be fine, although tonight i noticed one of his under belly fins was not extended properly. Any ideas on what might be going on?

 

All the other fish seem fine, and he looks in good condition so i am at a loss on what he is doing. ( i think he is male as the is the smaller of the two and the other has grown quite large in the tank)

 

thanks for any advise

if you have a damsel and a clown in the same tank, he is most likely getting picked on by the damsel. I know you may never see it, but damsels will kill anything in there. your only hope is that the royal gramma will make lunch of the damsel first

Always towards the top, huh. Mine do that, too. When they are sleeping. Does this happen when the lights are turned off?
