Orchid Dottyback

[puttycat]

Just picked one up tonight, kids picked it out. Real bright color fish, was very social at the LFS. Read on line they like to hide:frustrat::frustrat: I am filling my tank with "Chicken fish"
If I ever see it again I will try and post a picture:sniffles:

LOL....yeah, that sucks when you get all hiders :) I have 3 chromis who are swimming around a lot, and now my goby is out and about a lot....too bad the goby's white on white sand! hard to see him. Can't wait to see your pics!

I have a bunch of hiders too! I can't wait to see pics!

Once they settle in then they will hide less.

I've had my Firefish since last June, how much longer do they need?

 

[motorcyclereefer]

I thought firefish were jumpers not hiders.?

 

[puttycat]

Me too, I had 6 to start down to 2 one only comes out once a week to eat.

Get a trio of anthias.When other fish see open water swimmers out in the open,it makes them feel safe enough to come out.

I will look into that, the firefish has been out more today than in the last 5 months so he must be feeling safer already
