calculator Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 My one does that, except it does it hidden in some plant (it chose the plants as it's hiding spot for some reason). I have only had him for a few weeks and assumed it was natural, but now you have made me nervous about it not being natural behavior.

calculator Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 That isnt good, I am glad mine hasn't jumped out of the tank, and I hope it never will. They do have a funny way of swimming, mine likes to dart around the top of the aquarium swimming upside down all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F15hguy Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 I had one a while back that would do that only when his mate (a Borrelli apisto) was guarding his cave, then he would guard the cave while the apisto sat in the cave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
