Well...I got a Climbing Perch a couple of months ago. All it does is hide. Do these guys prefer to be in groups or need dithers or what?

I have one, around 3" and I read that they hide alot, but mines out and about all the time, maybe its just mine.
They like to linger around over-hanging wooden structures while stalking their prey. If you haven't already, try decorating your tank to mimic their natural habitat.
Not sure on a group but mine has a crush on my SA Lungfish and follows him everywhere so I'd try some dithers. Also feeding ghost shrimp cuz they do sneak attacks and pretend to be a leaf!
I have a group of 6 of these (leopard ctenompoma) that get along fine. I have a planted driftwood setup and they love to hide in the anubius. Sometimes people look in there and don't see any fish- it's kinda fun to point them out. Mine live peacefully with polypterus
Only from memory, but I'm fairly sure you should keap either one solitary or a group of 5+.
Could be wrong, but fairly sure thats what is suggested.
