My Pink Face Wrasse is swimming loops around the WAV's on the left side of my tank. I have been watching this for the better part of the morning. It isn't constandt, but has me wondering what the heck is going on here... Do I need to throw him a beach ball or a hamster wheel to keep him entertained?!? :oops:

Looks like he may be seeing his reflection
 
does this happen at different times of the day or only in the mornings?
 
Just seeing it for the first time... Could well be the case, though
 
How long have you had this fish? Is there any other tank mates that are chasing him a lot?
 
He's been in the tank about a week. No one chases him. He's gone back and forth with the Melanurus a couple of times, but it's not an ongoing thing. More funny than anything. Looks like he heads over there every 5-10 minutes. It probably is his reflection... crazy fish
