Clown fish playing?

[plunderisley]

I got a little clownfish (false Percula ) (1.5" or so) I added him to the tank yesterday and he played at the bottom of the tank. Today I look and he is swimming in the current the HOT filter is giving out.
I don't know if the current is too strong for a little fish, but when I turned it off, he seemed to got bored and went swimming around the tank. Is that normal?

I also tried to feed him some pellets and brine shrimp, but he didn't eat.

Should take him a few days before he is comfortable enough to eat....

Imagine trying to eat after being slapped and put in a dark van... then offered a burger?

Clowns do funny things... mine also seem to like to swim into the flow every once in a while.. As long as there are places in your tank with non-direct flow then he will be fine
