Hyper clownfish

I have 2 Ocellaris clowns. One seems to have discovered BTA and hovers over it twitching (all hyper acting), darts to other side of tank and back to hover again, but won't go in. It's almost like he really wants to badly but just can't bring himself to take the first step. Is this crazy, twitching, racing around the tank behavior normal?
 
It doesn't sound too abnormal to me...I'd expect them to calm down some once they actually go in :)
 
It might just be getting used to the anemone, watch to see if it bites the tentacles, or maybe just barely touches the tentacles of the nem. it might be that, and then that usually takes anywhere from an hour to a couple days, and then they jump right in.
