I have a young rtc (7 inches long) that hates light. The light I'm furrently using is a really nice led and it has a night time setting where there are only 2 bulbs on and they're blue. It makes the tank look great and it isn't very bright. But when its on my rtc just chills in the corner. Should I leave it off so that it will swim around or keep it on and force him to adapt? Or will he not adapt to the light? Thanks for the help.

mine swims freely with or without light, the problem is people over feed the RTC and then it just lays around digesting its food for hours on end before it goes looking again, Do u feed like 1 big meal or multiple smaller meals?

I try to feed small meals and more often, makes him more active as he is allways actively looking for food
