I’ve had my Naoko wrasse for a little while now, he’s been happy since day one and settled really well with my other fish.

Over the last few days he’s been displaying his fins quite regularly, is this just normal behaviour or can it be a sign of stress/problems?

Could be a territory display for the other fish. Any aggression or bullying going on in the tank?

No aggression at all in there. I have 5 fish and there is no territorial behaviour among them, even when they are fed.
 
They display to intimidate rivals, and other fish. Naoko is a very fast wrasse and taking of him display was very difficult. Here are pictures of mine. Very proud of these pictures.
