Hey, my wrasse is exhibiting unusual swimming behavior anyone familiar with this? It's done this a couple of times in row, starts swimming upwards and losing color

Doesn't seem terribly off to me personally... could just be lacking in nutrition that is making the color suffer.

Not a total wizard when it comes to disease and parasite in this hobby, but overall I feel your fish isnt all bad

Yeah, I'm not terribly troubled by what I'm seeing there. I have one of these and my impression is they are kind of wonky swimmers in general. Though I understand that behavior changes are always a red flag.

My pink streaked wrasse swims the same way. I think that's just how they swim.

Thanks for the replies, yeah, I've had it for two months and I would call it very uncharacteristic behavior, but I'll keep a close eye.
Seems much better today!
