what's up with my sixline?

the last few days my sixline wrasse has been doing strange things. instead of swimming among the rocks like he normally does, he has been out in the open. he will flick his body in a weird jerky motion, and his entire face will turn completely white. after a few minutes of this he will calm down, and get all the color back to his face. he will normally do this several times before he stops. I have been home all this week and the only time that i've noticed him doing this is late in the evening. he has been eating, sleeping and drinking fine. still fat and healthy looking.
so, is he sick? or is this some type of mating call/ritual that he/she is doing

Well, I have no idea! Jhnrb???

My clown used to freak out and change colors sometime (go all white). Then she would run into the glass. But she got over it and has been fine since. So yeah, no idea.
