my baby ck , has just started to lay on top drift wood and stay very still even wen im at the tank,is this normal :s
 
...no.

Any time you have a fish laying down awkwardly something's wrong. At the bare minimum you have a knife who's got a terrible internal disease; I can't imagine much better for an animal with those symptoms.

Well, in that case it might be just some strange behavior, I was under the impression that it did that all the time...
 
It's not normal for it to lay on top, but under would be fine. Unless you have some covering over the driftwood, then that might be a possibility. Check your water parameters. What's your temp at? And observe the CK closely. It may also be sick.
 
Everything is fine as long as he's eating. Cks are nocturnal and move very very little during daylight conditions..................
 
parasites or.......






the water could be bad!!!
