Redtail Shark

[jinxgj]

Hi, i was wondering if anyone could help me out with a query about my red tail shark? I have had him for about 6 weeks now and he seems to have settled in very well and has nearly doubled in size since his arrival!! My query is regarding his behaviour in the evenings. He has started to hang vertically in the water in between the ornamental ship wreck and the glass. He stays there for a while then swims off but comes back to the same spot a while later. He is very active during the day and sometimes chases the smaller rosy barbs (mostly keeps to himself and hides in the ship though).

Is this "normal" or could there be a problem forming?

I have a 125l tank and all levels are normal.

Many thanks in advance

Debbie

Hi Debbie,



My Red tail Shark dos exactly the same sort of thing, nothing to worry about in my opinion.
