vavoli Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 Hey folks, Does anyone else's goldfish always hang out in one corner? Mine are always swimming in one corner as though they're always hungry... So i'll feed them their daily feed as always and they'll swim around happily for about ten mins then go back to their corner and look at me with those googly eyes like they want more food... They're perfectly healthy but not sure about happy. Any ideas?? :-? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stella Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 what is different about that corner? (both inside and outside the aquarium) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthony law Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 is there any cover for them as if the tank is bare they may feel inscure and go to that coner to hide,,put a plant in the tank so they got somethimg to hide behind....

vavoli Posted January 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 The only thing different about that corner is that it's the corner that's closest to me lol... They can see me and think i'm gonna feed em' again... And they have lots of plants in there they're very spoilt... Two really good filters and bubbles every now and then too. I guess they're just bored? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthony law Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 if they are just bore go and get some live food that they have to chase down that will give them something to do.. :lol: :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 Pick the tank up, turn in 90°, put it back down. See if they still go to the corner closest to you. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stella Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 My inanga hang out looking at me. The mudfish come out of their hiding places and stare at me if I sit in front of them for a minute. A million years ago I used to stand to one side in front of my goldfish tank. They were all looking at me. Then I would move to the other side and they all came over to that side.... (I had really interesting teenage years....) If I moved a tank within a room they would all sit there staring at the part of the room that was newly visible to them. Maybe fish just think I am freakish..... or I just give them something less static to stare at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
