Fish Crazy
Hi there,
My Siamese Flying Fox is the biggest cowardy custard fish in my tank. All I have to do is walk into the room and he / she goes bananas trying to hide!! Are they naturally timid fish or is mine just 'sensitive'? All I ever see half the time is a nose peeking out from his / her hiding place. The other half the time, I see a fish streaking across the tank at full speed... I used to have two of them, but this one was getting so badly bullied that I took the tankmate to the LFS.
(This shyness doesn't stop him chasing after my Zebra Danios though... Grrrrr...)
And I only managed to get the following pic by lying in wait and 'pouncing' on him / her!! (How do you sex SFFs?)
So, are they naturally timid?
