i got a six line wrasse 4 months ago. he hid for quite a while as he got used to the tank ( i have a three striped damsel that is a bit of a bully ) when i did see him he always seemed to be grazing the rock, looking for pods i assume. now he's out a lot more but would appear to be swimming at a 45 deg. angle even when not grazing the rock. he was about 1/2" long when i got him and is now 3/4" and always appears to have a full belly. he eats the frozen marine diet that i feed the tank and has plenty of bristle worms and pods from my refugium ( it's just overflowing with pods ).
also he looks like he is shivering a little bit ( or on a cafine buzz ) he just appears shaky? has any one seen this behaviour before?
my params.
sg 1.026
ph 8.2
temp 77
ammonia 0
nitrites 0
nitrates 0
phosphates 0
calcium 380
alk 2.9
magnesium 1200
iodine / iodide .04
all test kits are seachem.
i know the calcium is a little low ( i am working on it right now ) but i don't think that would have any effect.....
any help would be greatly appreciated
