fish flashing or rubbing........

[johnptc]

how often do your fish flash ?? Flashing is the behavior when a fish slides against the substrate or objects in the tank in order to scratch themselves wehther its an itch or a parasite.

I cant tell if it is ich or anything because they only do it ONCE in a while. I remember I could tell i had ich because my pleco had white dots on it. But since i gave him away, i cant tell much

My L. fuelleborni does this if I miss a feeding. I think he's trying to scrape algae off the rocks.

The others never seem to do it.
