Shy Scissor Tails In 50 G When I Turn The Light On

[samxx]

ok just ( yesterday ) moved the scissor tails to the 50 g & they look ok but when i put the light on today they just hide until i turned the light off & they started swimming around again

so what is up with them

is it coz they are the only fish in the tank
is the light to bright
to they need longing to feel

what is up with them

if you have a couple of switches (two lights on the tank), try turning on just one for a few minutes then the other. Another thing you can try, is just turn on the room light for awhile and then the tank. That way its just not a sudden shock of light. Some fish take a few days to get use to their new enviroment. You said you just moved them so give them a few days before starting to worry.
