Clownfish Question

So I bought a new common Clownfish about a week ago; he's been in my quarantine tank ever since. His skin/scales look healthy, but I've noticed that he spends almost 100% of his time in the same small tiny corner of my aquarium. He stays at the very bottom and just kind of hovers in the same spot. If I get too close to the glass he sees me and takes off very fast, but he eventually always comes back to the corner.

Do I need to be concerned about this for any reason?

usually not. they normally pick one spot and stay there most of the time.
