Hi,
I have 2 blood parrot cichlids that do nothing but hide in their cave. Is there a way I can get them to come out of hiding and swim around and just be normal fish. Occasionally they turn a pale orange color. It's not the water. pH is 7.6, ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates are all 0. I think it's because they are nervous. I just put them in a new 60 gallon tank a couple of weeks ago. But when they were in the old tank (for about 5 months) they still ran when anything came near the tank. They live with a gourmai and a pictus catfish.
Is there any training or things I could to go get them to come out.
Thanks!!
