I just came home and noticed the larger of the two clowns acting really strange. He is running headlong into the tank walls and powerheads. It's worry me.

Any know what could be causing this?

Thanks,
James

Was it at night??

If it was you should know clown fish are unbelievably light sensative. I have read storys of people coming home late and turning on lights and their clowns start freaking out and running in to everything and even killing themselves in the process.

No icks, but I believe Nova hit it right on!!

I came home last night to work on some stuff for the tank and turned on the lights wiithout thinking about it.

Lesson learned let me tell you!

Thanks for the insight.

Humbug,
What species? Some clowns are way more skittish than others.

I would guess this is a percula clown?

Yes, they are the percula's. Skittish is right. But at times, they are pretty agressive.
