Volitan lionfish

[KING KONG]

So I got a volitan lionfish 3 weeks ago. It's diet includes live mollies and some dead food. It's a active fish but I have seen it itching using its fins. My guesses are that bristleworms are disturbing them but still wanna confim. Blue velvet demsel is it's tankmate(full sized)

looks pretty good to me. I didn't see anything unusual with it

I have seen it itching with its fins. It hits its fins to its body. I'll try to make vedio when it will do it again..

Welcome to Reef2Reef!

The fish in the video looks good, not breathing fast, seems alert.
Lionfish with flukes will often give a quick rush forward, watch for that.
Otherwise, it may just be flicking its fins in response to some detritus in the water.

Thanks
I think it looks alert because of camera. I'll try to remove that detritus as soon as possible
