Hey, I have a baby sun cat in a 40 gallon tank (will upgrade when he grows older). I did a water change today, and rearranged the rocks/decor, although keeping them in the same general area.
PROBLEM: The sun cat keeps "freaking out". Swimming frantically against the back glass wall. Other days, he just enjoyed swimming throughout the entire tank, sometimes quickly, sometimes at a nice leisurely pace. But now he just swims back and forth (sometimes up and down) quickly against the back wall. The other fish, (2 baby oscars and 2 dino bichers) seem completely undisturbed.
This isn't constant though. He would swim frantically for some time, and then go and hide for a while.
I think it's because I rearranged the tank decor a bit, but I'm not so sure because my other fish aren't behaving out of the norm.
Is there anything I can do help calm him down?
