Clownfish behaviour normal?

[Lepdecko123]

Hey everyone, posting a video of my clownfish for some advice. I got him about a week ago. He often swims like this, and while swimming he’ll sometimes slightly open and close his mouth.

I’ve also noticed a faint reddish hue on the white sections of his body, but it’s only really visible at night when I shine a flashlight on him.

He’s eating well, active, and the other fish in the tank are all acting normal. Water parameters are in range and normal.

Does this seem normal/new fish adjustment behavior, or is there any cause for concern?

I dont see anything abnormal that stands out. If feeding normal and breathing normal, simply keep an eye on it. I know some foods are limited in Canada but try to get LRS fish frenzy as well as brine shrimp, pellets and flakes fore best nutritional needs for this fish. As you may have seen, bangaii will only eat frozen foods

I agree, I don’t see anything alarming here.
