Hello
I purchased a snowflake clownfish over a week ago. He has been swimming back & forth from each end of the tank everyday all day very fast. I figured I’d just leave him be to let him settle into my tank. But today he is still doing the same thing none stop and I’m not sure if something is stressing him out.
Today I turned off both wave markers and he starting to explore the tank and swim around normally but the minute I turn back on the wave makers he starts to swim crazy fast back and forth again. I have corals in my tank that require a lot of flow and both wave makers are on their lowest setting. Since turning off the flow is not an option any suggestions on what I can do for him or should I just leave him be and hope for the best?
I attached a video to show him swimming but in this video he’s swimming a lot more calmer then usual but this is all he do all day. The last clown fish I had did not do this at all.
