So I have just separated one of my fish (named Rainbow, hope this helps distinguishing them) because I think she has Ich and I want to make sure it doesn't spread around the tank. I observed her scratching herself on the gravel as well.
Rainbow became instant friends with Jack (short for Jack-o-lantern lol). They would swim together and have a great time. So, since I just separated them, I swear Jack is missing Rainbow. I know it sounds kind of stupid, but Jack and Rainbow will look at each other from separate tanks.
My point in mentioning their friendship is that I just saw Jack try and scratch himself just like Rainbow did! Jack hadn't ever done that before! Directly after that, one of my tetras did it too! I'm a little freaked out ahaha, that is some odd behavior.
I am a little worried that it was too much stress on the fish, but I want to make sure that Rainbow gets treated. I think she's pregnant too.
Let me know your thoughts and if you know anything about Ich and the scratching!!
