RLHam3 Fingerling Posts: 44 Kudos: 34 Votes: 0 Registered: 20-Mar-2008 | hey every time i go into my room i find him sitting on the bottom of the tank. when he see's me he starts swimming around. but if i leave the lights off he just sits in one place and doesn't move. i have the tank at 80 degrees and im about to do i 30-40% water change. so whats going on? am i feeding him too much maybe? (one shrimp a day or as many snails until i notice his stomach looking poofy) |

Give him a light cycle so he can differentiate day and night. -------------------------------------------- The aquarist is one who must learn the ways of the biologist, the chemist, and the veterinarian. |
