I currently have my synspilia in a 55 gal by himself (He has been banished) He stopped eating flakes and pellets and would only eat live and spirulina frozen, and hid whenever anyone came in the room. I added three rainbow fish for dithers yesterday and he ate flake for breakfast along with the rainbows.:D However last night one of the rainbows took a lickin'. It'll be fine but should I add more or is this a normal adjustment?
 
Since rainbows are a schooling fish get afew more.I use them to (as dither fish)and if you only have 3 they will start picking on one.I would suggest a small school of 5-8.
 
Six sounds like a good idea! its hard to find these fish around here(MN)but they are very pretty.
