So lets be honest ... I post alot but I haven't really started a completely useless post.
So here is my first.
So today my Piranha was great ... very social ... follows me around the room when I am walking around it.
Today was a week since the last cleaning it was time to clean his tank. (the side he doesn't like me near his hide out)
My tank is layed out so the right side is mostly hide out and the left side is all "run way" for him to swim in.
Normally when I put the vaccum into his hide out he simply just goes to the other side of the tank and watches.
Not today though ... Today he decided to swim back and forth hitting the tank.
Which well I don't know how anyone else feels but it seems upsetting to me thinking he could be injuring himself.
Finally he finds the closest biggest plant (that can't cover him) and he watches (but only while I drain the water if I vaccum he freaks out and won't stop)
Anyone else have this?
I guess making a decent hide out in the opposite side of the tank would probably resolve this problem.
