Fish swimming up and down >vid<

Whats up with my fish....its like 3-4 of them that swim up and down and in circles against the glass. What is the reason behind this. I had read something about the water needing more oxygen, and on another site they ended up saying the fish was sick. I picked up my hanging filter so that the water splashes and not there are actual bubbles now. I have a new pump coming in the mail next week so that can help with circulation. Its just annoying and not normal, right? Or are they chasing their tail?? kiddin....The others are just chillin and minding their own business.

Nothing unusual about what they are doing. This is normal behaviour. They are checking out the glass rock (ie your tank) because there is a current right there. Fish love to play in the current. Its good for them :)

Yup, very normal. I've seen some of my cichlids do this when I've messed with their territories. It's like they're checking everything out all over again, and for some reason, that includes swimming up and down on the side of the tank. They usually settle down after a few days.

Cool Cool. These lil guys never stay still. This is the main reason i tested my water. I didnt know if they were deprived of something. Sounds good...
