used to it yet. Give him some time buddy he'll come around. I promise! Might take a day, 2 day maybe even a week. But don't worry..He has been in there for about 1-2weeks i have it devided becaus i have 3 redtail cats on other side thats bigger than them. They are all in 150 gallon tank 72,18,28 i know when they grow they will need a bigger area but for its a start. But the bass always hide and stay in 1 spot. Or this is when i look at them. I dont pay attention to them alot because the tank is in the basement temp around 76-80 maybe when he gets to big for that area he will move more frequently. But i cant wait to see theor aggressive side. And always moving. 2 monos 1 tem and 3 cats. Tem moves around the cats move around when givng food the 2 monos stay around those rocks the tem swims with minos at bottom of tank. So how long before the monos start doing what the tem does. The tem is smaller then the monos too.
When they get hungry enough they will and yea having the temp closer to 84 would be preferable. Also not sure you realize how quick your gonna have to upgrade that tank unless your already have something in waiting . Just my 2 cents.
I know how quick they grow when they get to big plan on swimming pool from walmart for 300 bucks.
You look like you have nothing in the tank. Just the fish. They're still babies. They need hiding places. Toss some plants in there and I bet you'll see them around more.
Okay i will yeah they are babies. I just started like 2 months ago. It also sucks because the tails attack the smaller. Hoping when they grow out the juevenile stage they will be okay not attack
I know theu territorial but just hoping. It be awesome if the monos be a male and female yo spawn later in life
