Hi all. Was wondering if anyone else had experienced this.
I recently switched from the standard flourecent bulb that came with my setup to a full spetrum 65K bulb. The bulb isn't any brighter, but the colors of my fish seem to have more punch. I've had the new bulb on the aquarium for a few days now. I noticed yesterday that my Red Tail Shark was no where to be seen. He's one of my more active fish and its strange not seeing him. This morning, when I switched on the light I saw him dart into one of the caves in my docorations. Apparently he doesn't like the new light. None of my other fish seem to care...including a second red tail I have in the tank (I know, many people say they are too aggressive to have two, but, I have quite a bit of decor that includes many caves and hiding spots. They've both staked out a territory and don't bother each other.) So, anyone know why this one Red Tail Shark seems so sensitive to the light?
