I bought an upside down cat around 4 weeks ago and had problems with not coming out for food, and hiding in the same spot in the cave, was told to get another to cheer it up, I did and they're both inactive, so again a 3rd and nothing, they're all extremely scared and do not like being in the tank at all, they're the biggest in the tank yet get bullied by all my other usually peaceful fish.
I did have a large cave where they wedged themselves into and stay, however they're just not eating and have shrunk massively since I bought them. I've removed the cave to try and get them to eat a bit of food and no luck they just want to get into the smallest gaps and hide.. I know they're a nocturnal fish but nothing changes even in the dark. Am I just going to have to put the cave back in and let them starve to death? Or keep the cave out, there are other hiding places, I've tried flake foods sinking pellets algea wafers, live brine shrimp, protien food.. I don't really want to put any more in due to stocking issues and it not solving the problem
