Any one have fish that don't tolerate darkness?

Are your Fish Afraid of the Dark???

Maybe the boogie fish comes out at night.

Exactly. They freak out more in bright light as opposed to the dark

My asian bumble bee catfish goes ape sh1t with energy when I turn lights off. If you thought he was active with lights on (which he is) you should see him after dark!
Well... I believe it may have to do with their visibility through the aquarium glass.
But with the lights off my 1.5" p bass fry seem very skittish and hide all the time.
With the lights on they never dart away when I walk by. They are out in the open all the time and confident.
There is a possibility this could be a typical predator - prey response.
As in the wild when the big nocturnal predators come out.

Yea. My catfish do the same.
Maybe I should have specified Cichla.

Every young p bass I've had at around that size was skittish with the lights on or off but when I abruptly turn the lights on all my fish except the big dats dart around for a few seconds.
