My clownfish are going insane like they're trying to escape! Is this normal?

Question

I have been doing everything right with buying clownfish but after 4 days I have woken up to find them swimming really fast around the tanks "trying to get out"...

What could this mean?

Answer 1

the oxygen leval is wrong or they dont like the home they are in

Answer 2

First thing I would do is check the water for a build up of any chemicals. Ammonia build up could be the problem. Fish have skin under the scales and they get itches just like us.If their skin is burning from too much waste in the water they will do everything to get away from it. Including jump out.
