I jus got my maroon 3 days ago he was swimming around like a maniac eating like a pig and then today when the lights turned one he's at the bottom of my tank behind some rocks just swimming in place has not came out all day won't eat looks scared or something is this weird ? Or normal ? Water is perfect all I have is a yellow tang and 2 chromis and a few hermits they all got along and I saw the maroon sleeping when the lights when off the night before he was fine please help !
 
I think he's ok, they will find a spot to camp out in and call home.
 
Are you quarantining your fish?
This is the system that added multiple clowns added and then removed?
If at all possible please add an image.

Yes this was one of the 4 clowns I had in together but I removed all of them and kept my maroon but I now just noticed some weird slime like around his mouth and cheek area pretty sure it could be the clown fish disease brook but not positive I did a ro/di bath for 8 mins and threw him in my QT well wait and see what happens god bless !!! He was doing great for 2 days now this randomly no hard breathing or gasping for air either so I caught it early to
 
Maybe just stressed out a bit from being moved. Hopefully he will be okay. If he is eating that's a good sign.
