Severum behaviour


Scuba Sam

Recommended Posts

I have just placed four decent size gouramis (moonlights and blues) in the tank with my golden severum. What a change in the severum!! He has been sulking for a couple of weeks since I shifted his tank from the lounge to the spare bedroom, and he has been hiding in the corner behind his tree stump.

Now he is out and about, and chasing the gouramis. Not a shy boy anymore. He isn't hitting them hard, just giving them a nudge. Is this territorial behaviour? He is mostly defending his cave. Any advice? I am about to go away for a week, and needed to thin the population in another tank which was a bit overpopulated for my week away.

Thanks,

Sam
