What is considered a normal amount of activity for a Clown Knife that's 7" to 10"?
He used to be very active with his swimming around the tank every hour or so. But now he spends all of his time "sleeping" in his spot in a cave I made for him.
He's only active when he eats. Any other time he's back in his spot and not moving a muscle. Also he's rarley active, even in the middle of the night. Other than that, he appears to be perfectly healthy. Eats like a horse. Shoots around like a bullet. Never lays on his side. And Doesn't bother his tank mates.
Setup:
75 Gallon Fresh Water. Emperor 400 Power Filter. Clown Knife. Common Pleco. Jack Dempsey. Striped Rapheal Catfish. Spotted Rapheal Catfish.
Clown Knife: 7" to 10"
Pleco: 6" to 8"
Jack: 3" to 4"
Rapheals: 3" to 4"
Everyone has there own caves and seems to keeps to them selves.(When I'm in the room.)
Feed them medium floating cichlid pellets 6 days of week.
Live food every two months or so.
So what is it?
Normal amount of activity?
Too many inches of fish per gallon?
Did I make his cave too comfortable?
Something I'm not thinking of?
