Has anyone else seen there Bristlenose catfish in a routine?
I've always thought them to be relatively shy, nocturnal and random, however!!! Every night around 11 mine decides to swim anti clockwise around the tank, stopping off for a munch here and there, then off again. It normally lasts for about 30 minutes its always anti clock wise! Then he is back to normal, and its been happening for weeks.
At first I thought it was a water problem but after a water test everything was/is fine
He (well could be a she) is still young about 1/2 adult size, he is not shy as he goes for my Amazon puffer it gets too close and has lots of wood and hiding places.
The only thing I can think of would be that its looking for a mate?
