So this is where my hippo tang has decided to sleep after removing all my rocks lol.
First day i seen this he scared the crap out of me, thinking he was dead lol! Anybody else have fish with weird sleeping habits?? Lets see some pics if you have them.
try putting some large pieces of pvc in the tank, it will act as a cave and give him some security.. when you are finished working on your tank just throw it away...
ya he is probably stressed out. he has no shelter and no where to hide from predators when he needs to sleep/rest. Built in instinct and he is feeling vulnerable.
Theres lots of pvc and different hides in there.. thats just where he chooses to sleep, hes always slept in wierd spots. Wedges in between rocks or wedged in branches of my acro colonies when i had them
