Chilli Rasbora Advice Please.

[Vancar]

My chilli rasboras just hide in the one top corner behind the filter outlet, anyone got any advice on pursuading them out from the corner?

What other fish do you have and how many chilli rasboras do you have

 

[snake007]

How long have you had them and how big is the tank?

 

[Vancar]

Tank is 90cm (l)x 40cm (h)x 30cm (d)

My stock has dwindled a little I have 5 galaxy rasboras, 5 otos, a bulldog plec 5 neon tetras and 9 chilli rasboras.

A few plants, but not too many and 2 large peices of wood at the back middle.

The chillis i have had for a good 4 months

Chillis appreciate lots of cover and won't be as shy when there is more cover, so i would recommend having some more plants in there and see if that helps at all. To me it sounds like they are scared of omething but I don't know what, and the chillies Would definitely Benifit from having 2-3 more of them

Totally agree, I orginally had 12 but 3 died over the last 3 months.

Yeah, they are very skittish fish by nature so they do Benifit from having 10-12 if you can do that.
