Starting to get annoying...

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I have heard the same thing from ollllld school guys doing it with newly imported wholesale stuff. I have no idea why it would work or if there are any long term negative effects but who knows? Might be something there.

What's your temp at? I have noticed that if you raise the temp to 88 to 90 they are so hungry the last thing they even think about is running away and hiding all they want to do is eat, also I try to feed a lot if small meals it makes them beg. Once they get large it doesn't matter

The thought process behind the lights is that they will normally freak iut when you turn them on. By keeping them on, they will feel more comfortable in the lights and then more comfortable and less skittish overall.

Makes sense. On & Off thing though hasnt been an issue with my fish they really dont freak. But Im still gonna give the 24/7 lighting a go anyway. Cant hurt em.

Theres already 3 Geos in there those didnt seem to help. Thinking about selling them anyway. Th 50g is a bit stocked atm so when the move to the 180 ill just ditch the geos and get some barbs.

I'd try adding some barbs or other schooling fish before I'd keep the lights on 24/7.

Sometimes when fish see others out and about they settle down...
