My clownfish don’t like their blue light

[cas_aquatics]

My clownfish when they were in a store, they had white light but my tank has blue light, when I turn the light on they stick to the glass but when I turn it off they swim normally. What should I do? Should I buy a white light?

It's all new to them, just give them time to adjust.

Alright, thanks.

The previous tank might have used blue lights towards "night time". They might see your blue lights as night which is normally when clowns will cling to the glass in the corners to spend the night.

I'd rather them host corners than euphila.

All my fish freaked out when I switched from white only to coral LEDs (with more blue).
*I went with slowly mixing from little blue to more blue over about a week and they were fine,,, but, yeah, they'll get used to it

Clownfish do this when new. Often day 1-2 they will huddle in an upper corner face up or a lower corner like they saw a ghost. Often when offered food, they snap out of it and head for a feeding. This is often common also when there are other fish in the tank they are unfamiliar with

Nah, they had white light in the day and then they turned it off at night
