Apologies if videos don't load.
Clown is chilling at the top of the tank... 50 gallon, swimming but on his side...
Every now and then I may catch him in the main water column, but not often?
I just got him a few weeks ago from a fellow reefer, I did not quarantine because I got the whole tank from him, so it was same fish etc going in to the same tank etc.
I mean.. I think he's ok.... Should I try giving him a few places to host?

For some reason the videos won’t load. Possibly all the blockers I am running but usually I get them still.

Is it eating and being active. Clowns can be weird.
 
Ah sorry about the videos.
Thank you :)

There seems to be minimal flow/aeration. I think i see a powrhead, is it on? The entire surface of water should be rippling with water flow. Think "ocean".
