I have a weird Freddy and was wondering if anyone has had a similar acting fish. This fish is scared all of the time. If the lights are out he is wedged under something. Sometimes on his side pressed between deco and the sand. When the lights are on he will come out but still stay hidden behind deco. He is scared to come up for food and will dart all around frantically. He will come out and get sinking food but seems to have a hard time grabbing it. He will miss a couple times before getting it in his mouth. I dont think this is an eye sight problem. It seems he is so scared that he cant focus and is just moving to fast. If Im doing tank cleaning he will play dead. He is the weirdest acting fish I have ever had.
Ive had him for about 9-10 months I think. He has grown form 3-4" to 6-7" and looks completely fine to me. Is this a normal growth rate?
Ive had him with a light and dark background and light and dark substrate. Ive had him with several kinds of fish and he is scared of them all. Hes in a tank by himself and still acts the same way. The water is always 0.0.<20 and all 20+ some fish I have are fine. He has acted off since day one with me.
Any ideas on whats going on or things I could try?
