Black Aro - Super SHY

[CrAzYNeSs]

Hello All,

I had a silver in the past and he was never this shy. This guy hides behind the top portion of my intake tube of the FX5. He only really roams around the tank when I'm around or when the light is out.

I wasn't even this shy around girls when I was 10 y.o.... geez

new to the tank??? keep the light off for awhile... let him get used to the new surroundings...
if not train him to realize that light=food... turn the light on and feed him....
never really done it myself... just maybe it will work...

blacks are way more shy than silvers.
