Loach behavior

My clown loach has been swimming up and down nonstop these past two days without taking any afternoon nap. I hardly see my loach eat when I feed the community (other fish include 8 zebra danios, 5 neon tetras, 1 blue gourami, 3 cories, and 1 pleco). Should I be worried about this active behavior?

if you have only one, it's beyond stressed and it wants to get out... clowns must be in groups of 3 or more, the more the better
Good to know

Thank you for your reply Poeticpyro. I will look into buying another two buddies for him. Clown loaches are not that cheap.

How long have you had your loaches?
