Yellow Tang Acting Weird

[drew2005]

Just noticed tonight that my tang is acting strange. With lights off he kinda stays still in one spot and jerks his body to one side a few times. Then he'll pick on some rocks and shoot across the tank jerking his body. He looks ok. No signs of ich or HLLE. I feed him a thumbnail size piece of Pro V 100% vegetable. Any ideas what he could be doing?

watch for redness on the skin, which indicates bacterial infection (terminal) jerky motions are first signs of discomfort, keep an eye on him
