Obsidian's 100 Gallon Tank - Page 4

The Green Terror hid too well and died. I am pretty sure that was the problem anyway. He would not come out, even to eat.

I cannot catch the JD's. I even tried seeding the net with food, but they are too fast and there are too many places for them to hide. I have no idea what I am going to do. I stood over them with the net for an hour. There was just no way.

Try two nets? Then you can kind of herd them with one, and catch with the other.

Well they run and hide in the rocks, no herding can solve that. Then they swim around the back of the rocks to the other side of the tank. Something will work out eventually. So far they are being gentle so I am not massively concerned ATM.

Well the Honeymoon is over. The big JD is already terrorizing the little JD and won't let it eat. The little one is now hiding. He leaves the danios alone though.

What does it mean when a JD tilts almost completely on it's side to another fish?
