I noticed yesterday that my hatchets and most of the other fish in my tank that usually swim at the top level of my tank have been swimming midway down for a little while. Its not all the time, but seemed unusual to me. Could this have to do with my CO2? Or is it normal behavior that I should not even worry about it?

Don't worry about it. If there was too much CO2 in your water they'd all be closer to the surface, gasping for air.


Back in the saddle!

What's wrong with your hatchets? Didn't they read the rule book?

Seriously, it really isn't anything to worry about. My hatchets live to dart throughout the top half of the tank, my corys come to the surface for food... they just like a change of scenery

Awesome! Thanks, you have made me feel much better!

I am not sure what those darn hatchets are up to...they know the rules!!! Alas, I guess the kids just wanted to have fun!
