So I got one of these my lfs had some in their saltwater tanks when I got home did some research and mine was acting different then described as a bottom dweller and nocturnal it was constantly swimming at the top of the tank against the flow of the power head. So after a few weeks I went and they had more already acclimated to saltwater so I got mine a buddy and they are both very active and seem to like a lot of flow in the tank no longer hanging at the top but they don't go to the bottom either and definitely not nocturnal. Anybody else know about these are mine weird for being very active in daytime never going to bottom (unless I bury food in the sand so it doesn't float away from snails and crabs)

I got one on sunday but the poor guy got picked on by everyone in the tank since I feed the tank with silversides and I guess he is also silver like their food. I had to take him out before he got killed :(

Freshwater fish is why.
