okay well a few days ago i bought an african butterfly fish because i thought they looked cool but... are they really this boring??
he is a darkish brown and gained his "sheen" once he settled in.
i didn't think he was eating at first and i thought he wasn't being nourished properly and that was the reason he wasn't putting much effort into moving.
the first night he spent layin on top of my filter and out of the way of the current. i suppose it was much easier for the poor fish.
anyway, he must be fine because a few moments ago i saw him eating.
at the moment he's only eating flakes but i'm sure he'll move on to bloodworms once he's used to the other fish at feeding time.
is there any other food i can give him that he won't have to compete for?
what plants do these guys like? i've heard they prefer floating plants which is understandable.
thanks
