How do you have that tank stocked? Also, how big is the BGK, what do you feed him, etc.?

BGKs should be fed frozen or live foods, preferably bloodworms.

does the BGK have caves to hide in? they are nocturnal animals and are very light sensitive. without a dark cave the BGK may become frantic and stressed.

if you are using one of those "ghost tubes" that may not be a good enough hiding spot
