How to stop fish from swiming against the glass?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
My fish have always done this after a good water change. Must mean they are content. I actually like when my silver dollars do this. I mean fish swim if they are just sitting in a corner must mean nitrates are high or they are sick. Take all the water out of the tank and they will stop doing this. LOL
 
I take those extra parts I never use for pumps and stuff. You know the plastic pieces... I toss them in the tank. I have this one [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Tropheus Duboisi[/FONT] it drives him crazy. Always moving them. The Oscar just attackes new things and does the face off on the divider.... His name is Nemesis loves to face the glass. Can care less for the snails.
 
My fish do it and i think its sweet thats one of the reasons i keep fish like that. my 2 inch GT eats out of my hand too!
 
Maybe spend more time near the tank without feeding them. They associate your presence with food, so maybe if they see you near the tank more often without being fed, they'll calm down.

No even just cichlids, they just want to eat my face.

lol factor = maxed hahaha

Yeah I have a ball with holes in it that floats, I\ll see if they will play with it, I hope so lol.

They are very small, about 3-4 inches. They are beside my pc, so I am here a lot while not feeding them.
