One of my panda's is always sitting in the corner of the tank and has been doing this for months. Seems to be perfectly healthy, just rarely socialises with the others.

Not sure if they take turns, or if it is always the same one.

Anyone seen this sort of behavior before. Should I be worried at all (as I said, he/she seems perfectly healthy)?

Some theories that we've come up with:
- he's been naughty and has been sent to the corner
- lookout for the other pandas
- just plain anti-social

How many Panda's do you have in the tank?.

well..IME...sometimes...one panda just dont socialise....when all r resting...one of them just keep on munching somewhere else...and vice versa...but there r times that i just see them all together or spread out in the tank.

I occassionally see one of my corries all off by themselves, while the rest are in a puppy pile munching/sleeping/playing I sometimes think the one is playing with it's own reflection thinking it's another cory playing chase up and down, back and forth with him I also have a clown loach who does the same thing, and I can see a reflection, so that is what I'm figuring it is...

That or it is just one of those things they are doing to make their owners wonder, "What the heck is going on here?"

i have a panda that jst recently seems to like to chill out on the leaf of an amazon sword - quite high up in the tank. seems like he is sunbathing

pandas r rather shy....i've successfully bred them for about 5 times and i think that your panda is normal....but still u gave very little detail

'pandas are rather shy'

there is nothing shy about my pandas. they swim all over the tank - up and down, in and out. sit in the strangest places etc etc.

ok....but most of my cories r shy...fish r different in different conditions though...eg. today the temp in my fishroom is 30C
