Since I have had my trio there has been a lot of worry going on.
Basically they are either not as aggressive of eater as I am used to or there is something wrong. They spend 90 percent of the time buried in the sand and have really cut down on eating tremendously. To be honest if they are eating they are eating very little compared to what they used to. I am trying not to be paranoid but I kinda am. I actually bought some worms yesterday to get them eating (which they did) however for long term I am trying to figure out if this it the personality of this ray or there is something wrong
Water quality perfect and I drip 5gph on a 500 gallon tank and they have been in captivity for a few years now.
Tank mates are a bunch of rainbow fish, a few angels, and a tinfoil barb. Also an asian arrowana which is very non aggressive however wondering if this thing may be stressing them out.
I know not a lot of info to go on so just looking for a character reference on Hystrix. Are they active or do they hide a lot?
