Clown laying on rock...swimming in tight circle?

[ToTaLCHaoS13]

I recent put two clown fish in my new tank. Don't worry, it has cycled and all the parameters measure just fine. The fish were fine for 6 days and all of the sudden last night one of them started swimming in tight circles, rubbing into the sand and rocks and laying on the rocks! Is this normal or should I be worried? I am currently feeding them frozen brine. Should I switch to another food?

i heard frozen brine does not contain all the good nutrients the fish needs.. you should try and feed them more of a variety, flakes and pellets.. make sure to check temp and salinity.. if there rubbing on the rocks check for ich.

I don't know the answer, but you might post in the Fish Disease forum tonight as well.
