strange behavior

[hound96]

my little one spot foxface is cuddling up to my huge volitan lionfish like a moth to a flame , has anyone else seen this type of behavior?

No, but I hope it's cuddling up to the tail end. :mrgreen:

right about the middle he rubs up against the lions dorsal spikes at the side of course very neat to see and absolutely no agression

Sounds like the safest place to be, right tight to the side.:biggrin:

[hound96]

you figure the lion is protecting it?

[ALBERTA REEF]

you figure the lion is protecting it?

Some what. The lion fish eat what it see. It can't see back alone his sides. Kind of like blind spots of a car. Which make it the best hiding spot in the tank.:biggrin: Survival

[hound96]

it has no reason to hide from the lionfish they have been face to face quite a bit and no agression is shown

hes always been with other fish in the other tank he was the biggest and now hes the smallest maybe hes staying close untill he becomes use to not being the biggest anymore, glad hes out and about though and taking to the other fish:) hes a cool little guy very active :)

[hound96]

yeah i gotta say he is one of my favorite

[ALBERTA REEF]

So he is a newbie to the tank. Survivor enstangs until he gets use to the new tank.

[hound96]

yeah him and my harlequin tusk fish are both newbies

UPDATE i just got home from the fish store from getting some turbo snails and a filter sock and what do i find my poor little foxface is laying on the bottom of the tank with no eyes , anyone have a clue why things would be fine and then this? they all got along fine 2 hours ago what fish do you think did it and if i got a larger foxface do you think this would happen again?

Makes me think of Little Red Riding Hood.
