My red devil is always hiding he is about 5" and is in a tank by himself a 40 breeder, he alwasy hide and is never out. Does your red devils do the same?
thats one weird RD mine even though he was 1" he would fight off a 7" jack and the RD always got the food he grew to like 10" while all the other fish were at 3"!
see its strange, maybe i should pick up some tiger barbs just to see what happens, thing is when i feed him roses boom there dead. idk i just hope he go crazy like ur guyses
My 7 inch FEMALE expects the person to hide from her. I put her in a 175 gl. tank with an 11 inch male and i had to take her out cuz she almost killed him She's the most aggressive fish i've ever seen, male or female. shes never had a tankmate (without a divider) for more then a day.
how long has it been in the tank? just give it time to become comfortable. or go buy a convict and throw it in there that might give it a confidence boost.
