one of my new mundis is acting very wierd.
he keeps trying to hide and even stuck himself behind the corner filter.
plus hes not eating but just looks at the food as it drops.
the other mundi is still acting normal and eating alot and so are the SHs.
imma do a water change right now and see what happens.
 
I don't think it's anything to worry about. Mine do the same thing. They establish a pecking order pretty quickly, and I would guess that the one hiding is at the bottom. He's probably just hiding from the other fish who has been giving him a hard time. Look for scales missing or damaged just below the dorsal fin - a sure sign they've been fighting.

Apart from that, my fish go very quiet at about 3pm each day, before waking up again near sunset.

hmm...
maybe.
no signs of damage nor fighting.
they hang out together too.
i never see mine go quite...
until today. LOL
but the other is still up and swimming. :D
 
they dont even show signs of fighting at all.
and yet one still keeps hiding.
the other just ignores the hiding one.
 
i got them...
two days ago i think.
on the first day both of them were very active and and on the second day both eating well.
but today one doesnt like to move.
