Sixlines have a iffy reputation (granted it's no damsel). Some people love them, some people think they're terrors. To this point, all of mine have been model citizens (one in 58, one in 180, new one in refuge).
The Sixline in my 58 has been in there 9+ months with my 2 perc's, 2 gobies, and royal gramma. It was last to be added. It's maybe 2.5" at this point.
In the last week or so, its been acting strange. Everything I list is new behavior. It has darted (although just a couple of inches) after all the fish, is doing circles in a corner in a tight space (3" space doing repeated circles), but today I caught him nipping at at a coral (torch/frogspawn). I have never seen that. I checked out the coral, and I don't see anything "living" or hosting in it that it would be going after. As well, it looked like it was after the extensions, not something inside.
I don't physically see anything wrong, and it's well feed.
Has my sixline gone crazy? If this keeps up, it will need to head to the sump quick. How on earth can I catch it?
Thoughts?
