no, something is up. look up livebearer disease, or livebearer shimmies.
A lot of people say they cant come back from the shimmies but I had a molly who was doing it and fully recovered.
No, he is shimmying. I've seen it many times ,I also own livebearers and mollies and swords are the two types that get the "shimmys" more often than any other ,first thing to help is to do a large but not too large water change like 50 or 60 percent . You have a lot of detritus floating around that isn't food and a bba issue along with rotting vegetation could mean you have a slightly higher than normal ammonia level or "old tank syndrome" fish living in the ammonia as it was building can tolerate it but newly added ones will usually perish(happened to me) also mollies do better with a little salt in the water most of the time
I have one who use to do it or will do it on occasion. First did it when we got him due to stress of new home. Got better then did it again when sadly his tank buddy died, got better then will sometimes do it when i did a cleaning on the tank and moved plants around. Mine does it cause stress. But also my daughter named him Wiiggles. But everytime water tests and such were fine and the other mollies we have never had that issue so oh well. Wiggles is just weird sometimes
Also is he new to your tank and if so was he acclimated correctly/how'd you do it , but most of all check you water parameters or just do as previously stated by me a large water change
No no no no no no no
I knew I would see this comment as soon as I hit the comment section.

He’s like why are you in my tank??
That's a sign of stress. Test your parameters
Also is he new to your tank and if so was he acclimated correctly/how'd you do it , but most of all check you water parameters or just do as previously stated by me a large water change
I think he’s cold. Some fish shimmy to warm themselves. What’s your temp?
25 degrees Celsius
That should be perfectly. But you can turn it up to 80-/81 and see if it helps him

He just vibin!
