I couldnt find a clear answer. My tank is riddled with dinos and I'm currently working on removing them. Can dinos cause fish to eat less, swim less, and overall look lethargic?

I took my clowns out to bring to my lfs, they offer free qt and hospital tanks so they are currently working on my little dudes and they are more active there than home.

The tank is 5 months old, they have been in it for 3 months and they along with a goby and cuc are all that's in the tank. They used to be exploratory and would eat out of my hands.

Plus my tanks water params are otherwise perfect besides the low nutrients. The inverts are thriving.

My fish are pretty hardy (captive bred ocellaris / orchid dottyback) so I can't say for sure, but they didn't die from it. All my corals and a few inverts and anemones did perish from it though.

Mine are captive too, but i just couldn't stand to watch them seem to suffer. Glad my lfs offered that.
