Appears tank is quite new and going through spikes and other water related including limited oxygen determined from fast breathing rate of this fish. The couple dots i see are likely ich and this fish will need to be placed in a Hospital/quarantine tank with treatment for ich and increased oxygen via air stone.
Didplay has a bit of free floating debris which neds to be siphoned up.
I see you are out of the country. What test kits are you using?
Treatment will be typically coppersafe for a full 30 days and monitored with a reliable copper test kit but not sure again what you have availble to you for medications??

I am using red sea and salifert test kit and finally Hanna for salinity. I am from Denmark, and i cant find Any products that help against Ich. Is it possible that it is velvet instead?

your video works perfectly fine as i can see it. What's all the that stuff floating around? Algae wafers?

I'd listened to Vetteguy and put an airstone in there.

Hi. I just cleaned the side with a magnetic, which is why there is a lot algae floating around. I should have stated that in my original description, Sorry!. I Think i Will make a quarantine and see What happens and hopefully find some medication for it. It is quiet hard here in Denmark to find any

I tried googling up Copper medication for fish in Denmark and got nothing. Do you have any local fish store that you can ask?

Isn't @Lasse from that area? I'm sure he can make some medication recommendations.

I´m from Sweden - there is some differences between the Scandinavian countries but as I know it - esha trimarine containing copper and you can buy that at least in Swedish Webshops - here is an example However - you can't use it in the DT with invertebrates
