My BGK enjoys sleeping upside down especially after a big feed . First time I saw him doing that I totally freaked, thought it died (coz at that time I have only had it for 2 days).

So ppl, what kind of weird/funny behaviour does yours have?

My one likes to sleep on top of a grassy plants on its side. Lays on its side and plays dead. Other than that its just a stupid fish :lol:

Stupid fish likes swiming backwards in to his cave and wonders why he gets stuck.

darn thing plays dead right at the front of the tank. i have had him for coming up a year and he is in a tank in the hall so i am walking past him all the time and i still panic and think he is dead or dying. Flipping worse attention seeker that my 2 and 4 year old girls!

Mine is just a mission to feed. I just dump alot of granumeat in front of it. Its comes out some times but its just retarded

hoho...found in wiki about these fish...

"they are weakly electric fish and use an electric organ and receptors distributed over the length of their body in order to find insect larvae.

Due to their electrical charge, a close, contained group of knife fish (as in an aquarium) will line up side by side.South American natives believe that the ghosts of the departed take up residence in these fish."

:lol: :lol:
