Hey everyone,

I bought an ocellaris misbar clownfish from an LFS on Saturday. It’s essentially quarantined since he had it for a while in his personal tank. I noticed the clown is swimming a bit over the place. It’s currently eating frozen.

Tank was cycled before adding fish. I wanted to show a video to get your opinion on its swimming behaviour. Thank you
 
it doesn't look stessed to me, but that looks like a LOT of water movement that may not be necessary and making it harder for him to swim calmly.

Thanks! I’m running the innovative marine mighty jet pump. No wave maker as of now. I’ll definitely turn it down.
