Sorry for the bad jokes but that last pic really had me cracking upLike his own personal bodyguards or something
The Greenie is easily the star of the tank. Just got him a few days back. He was all skin and bones, fattening him up with a variety of pellets.
Couple more pics to while the time away
Guys, quick question.
What type of lights should i be having for my GT to be comfortable? Any specific kelvin range? LEDs/T5s?

Just a couple more snaps. Think it's time i chuck the salvini off. My GTs tail trailer seems to have become shorter!
So it's been a few months now since i got him home and while he is feeding well he remains shy and prefers to stay in his cave even with dim lights on. Ventures out of his comfort zone to the front of the glass only when he is hungry. For his size i would have imagined him to be more bold needless to say seeing the alpha's behaviour even my clowns have started hiding. double bummer.
Most of the day tank is like a ghost town. Half a mind to sell them all off and get a wet pet.
Help

That is sad and disappointing:/
My first thought is to suggest bold dithers to bring him out more, or maybe a companion?
He does look stressed, but appears to be healthy. I'm really not sure why your boy would be acting the way he is.

Sounds stressed.
Let's cover some basics:
Water temp?
Nitrate levels?
High flow or low flow in the tank?
What's the stock like?
What is his diet like?
Any flashing or poops that look off?
Any signs of illness?
Where is the tank located? High traffic?
Picture of the full tank?
Big robust cichlids that spend all day in a cave just isn't right. My gt is at the glass 90% of the time watching us and or begging for food.
