Shy fish

Post by kribkid17 »

My shell dwellers that I got at the auction aren't shy at all, they are constantly out gaurding their shells and when I approach the tank they swim up to the glass and beg for food. My brichardis are different; they are always a dart away from a hiding place and when I approach their part of the tank they dive into hiding. Is there anything I can do to make them less shy? I've had them since the kc fish auction and there are plenty of hiding places. The only difference I can guess is there are 2 small convicts with the shellies but the brichArdis only have a syno cat on their side

YES! You need this lone female guppy for a dither fish. When do you want it?

That's what I was thinking, but I was leaning towards a trio of guppys
