has anyone noticed this with their Jardini?

Mine seems like he likes to show off when the lights are on and beat up his tank mates, but when the lights are off he is the biggest sissy in the tank.


He doesnt look like a meanie does he?

could be or could be photophobia. maybe the light scares him so much he takes it out on them...but your could be right about the nyctophobia. maybe i should get him a teddy bear...:eek::ROFL:
 
haha can u get my lei 1 too?
 
It's normal with any arowana, any fish, or anyone. When light's out, their vision is impaired, so they're mellow down, or panic sometimes, but can't be aggressive.. Put yourself in a dark room, you would be the same ;)
