Spastic Clown?

[try2wryte]

Ok so the clown has only been in the tank since last night, but this is the opposite reacion of every fish I've put in to date.
I traded off my 2 mean damsels and acquired a fairly big clown and a scooter blenny. The Clown has not stopped moving, bumping into the sides of the tank. Its a 95 gallon surfline so theres a lot of water to play in,
The damsels were terrorizing the dwarf puffer but now its only him, the clown and the blenny for fish...so 'm waiting to see if they play nice together
But the clown seems too energetic, if that makes sense? I'm just worried that she is stressed, but I could be paranoid.
The blenny immediately began scooting around eatin, he adjusted fine. But the Clown didn't eat til I hung a jumbo shrimp in for the puffer, then she aggressively came over nipped the puffer and then nibbled the shrimp
So She's eating thats good, but what advice on calming her down...just wait? or get a mate? (Rhyming unintentional) or something for her to host. Based on her size she can only be female. I'm wondering if the LFS sold off the other half of her pair?
I worry about getting an anemone because the tank is tall and the hood I have holds 4 straight pin fluorescents.... What do all yo experts think....?
(Posting in newbie forum as well)

Clown fish are endeared for they’re erratic swimming style. Welcome to the board FYI I am rude and condescending

The clown fish is not like any other fish. Their erratic swimming behavior is what they are noted for. And like all the fish you introduce each will react initially to the new environment in a different way IMO your clown is just being your clown

Mmkay..... So anyway is it safe to call her a her since she's almost 2 inches and if I put another in there the larger one would most likely be the one that converts to female, correct?
Can't wait to add the Hippo Tang it's cliche I know, But I loved Finding Nemo and I think they're just pretty fish, those and Mandarins but I don't have much of a pod population yet lol
