Default Ropefish Sick?
I'm still working on my reef tank right now but I just got a new addition to my 30gal FW tank. My rope fish just hides at the top behind my emperor 400 filter. Is that normal??? At the lfs he was active and at the bottom to the mid level of the tank. Do I need some caves in there with him? I only have 2 plastic plants, 3 neon tetras, 1 betta, 1 pleco. Each fish is from 1-2" and the pleco is about 7".

Hate to be hated, love to be loved&&Got a brand spankin' new 75 gallong fish tank... Working my way along with it . My #1 concern is the money I have to spend... Anyone got some spare pocket change for me :-P.&&&&One Arowana currently 8-9", 2 tinfoil barbs 6", one bala shark 4" H.O.T Magnum Filter... FW setup

whoever sold you that guy is either dumb or just wanted your money. Ropefish are hnters, he will eat anything he can fit in his mouth once he is adjusted. I work at a fishstore, we feed our rope fsh worms and small fish. You should have alot of rocks for him to hide in. Get him out asap if you like your neons.

lol thanks for the reply but I already moved him to the arowana tank. he was supposed to stay by himself but I guess he'll have some company... They seem to be getting along but I have noticed them just staring at eachother blankly.
