Why do they swim like this?

Hi guys just wondering why my clown fish keep darting like this? I know they swim weird but not seen this before.

They look healthy, but like the flow is too strong for them. Turn down the flow for now, young clowns are not very strong swimmers.

How long have you had them?
Did you do any quarantine protocol?
Could be normal, could be something more.

Agree with above

This. They'll be fine once you reduce the flow.

Likely, they are fisghting strong water current. Reduce slightly and they should swim more normal. Flukes can cause this swim behavior also but I see no tell-tale fluke signs
