Rubbing the glass

[homebrewed]

I moved my green into a new tank to house him for a few days while I get a new tank ready for him. The tank is 34"x34"x34".

Now he rubs the glass and its starting to effect his barbells

Any suggestions?

Could that be "new tank syndrome"? http://www.seachem.com/products/product_pages/Stability.html

If so, Seachem stability might help.


Good luck.

Its a stable tank that has been running for years so I don't think that it is new tank syndrome.

I am going to try keeping the lights off for awhile to see if that helps

Well, the barbells aren't straight anymore which has me alittle on edge. I've got him away from the glass, I just need to fix his barbells. I've added melafix and some salt.

The water is good but I am going to put on my FX5 to add more current to the tank to keep him busy.

I doubt they'll look the same again

Sorry to hear about your bad luck. Hopefully the barbells will straighten out in time.
