Title: GRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Post by: Leo on March 05, 2012, 04:59:32 PM

So, I woke up this morning to find my dominate male rostratus stuck in the filter intake and the other male was stuck under some rocks.  Not sure why they decided to have a war since there aren't any females in the tank

Ewwww....sorry to hear that. Sounds more like a nightmare that something you'd find when you wake up.  :(

Sounds like something spooked them and they dove for cover. When I had my breeding group I had to pull a few individuals out of the rocks when they got stuck. I ended up keeping the tank pretty much cave free or else they'd hurt themselves.

I wonder what it was.  The tank hasn't changed in about a year
