Fish Herder
So, I mentioned previously in another thread that my three spot has suddenly started acting crazy. He keeps freaking out and jumps out of the water and hits his head on the hood of the tank. Well, recently he's stopped doing this and is now being extremely reclusive. This is extremely odd since he use to love just swimming about in the open and wouldn't jump or anything. He used to chase all the other fish in the tank as well, but now, they scare him and he swims and hides all the time. I haven't noticed anything physically unusual with him except that his spots have faded immensely, but his blue hue is well defined. All water parameters check out fine since it's a well established tank with weekly water changes. Any ideas why he is becoming such a social pariah? I know that none of the other fish attack him since he's the largest and the others are scared of him. Now all they have to do is swim near him and he's darting to the other side of the tank and hiding near the bottom of the tank behind some plants and ornaments.
Any suggestions?
Edited to include: He hardly eats anymore now... just takes a few nips and then hides...
