Dory ate too much this Christmas

Too funny.  Quick questions, though.  How long is your tank and what are you running those Tunze's on to make the water surface wave like that?  I was trying to get a wave and can't.

Had a blue reef chromis that did that and then he died. (see vid) Hopefully your fish is just nuts and he will be fine. The thoery was that the fish was trying to increase metabolism to expel a parasite although I was never able to confirm that.

More likely a stereotypic response and an indicator of stress. Similar to a lion pacing or an elephant rocking. Is that a new fish? Did something change in the tank? 

 

If she stops doing it, it's not an issue. If she doesn't, there could be a problem with tank mates….
