Psychotic Spotbreast Angel

[hkgar]

She went from 12 days in TTM with Prazipro to 2 weeks in QT and acted very normal. She is now in DT and for 5 days this is the swim pattern, except she does com more to the center of the tank at feeding time. Eating is not a problem.



Any ideas for the erratic swimming? I noticed one time she came away from the wall, I think I spooked her by getting too close to the glass, the Kole Tang chased her and she came right back and the Kole stopped.

Looks like just chasing its reflection.

Right, but that's why I call it psychotic. It has been non-stop for 5 days. Except for about 40 seconds 3 times a day to eat.

She spends no time grazing the rocks as most angles would. She never stops the circles.

Genicanthus are planktivores not herbivores.

I think they go a bit nuts in our tanks. The killer whales at seaworld are reported doing this out of boredom.
