I have 5 Indo dat ranging from 4-9 inches what can I do to get the swimming around. Now that the have put on some size since we got them they just lay around the tank like a school of dead fish.Been thinking about selling some to see if that would get the others out more but have no clue what ones to sell.The 4inch one runs the tank and is out in the front most of the time and so is one of the 7 inch guys the 9 inch comes out some but the other 2 seems to hide if they see ppl even with just the moon lights on.
Need tips on Dats

Any dither fishes? I have some silver dollars with 3 dats and it seems to help them feel comfortable swimming around the tank. They do still hide but I see them pretty often as well.

Got to get rid of any hiding spots. The small guy that swims a lot I would keep. It doesn't sound like he's people shy. I always took away the spots. I found that Indo's and NTTs in groups when small tend to want to hide. Dog like dats of mine always ended up being years old and had a lot of people contact. I have 2 dats now and each have there own tank and both aren't shy and hide at all.

Them laying on their sides is them trying to hide. The ones in the corners could be staying away from the other dats in fear of attacks or they are trying to hide aswell if the corners are dark.. The small dat is your best bet.
