I haven't kept tangs, but if one of my fishes was darting away from me, I'd expect a little increased breathing from stress. Seems a little spooky. Is it eating?
Hopefully @4FordFamily will chime in

It doesn’t look like it’s breathing overly quickly but I would try a dip for sure to check for flukes as mentioned.
