Aquarium Advice Newbie
Hi all,
I just got an aquarium a week ago, and have never had one before.
Now, my new elephant nose is rubbing the side of its body against objects and plants in the aquarium every night as it leaves its cave. There are no visible spots on the fish that may indicate a disease, and I wasn't able to find any reference on the web for such a behavior.
Any ideas?
Another problem is that it doesn't eat. I wasn't able to get live worms so I tried flake food and frozen blood worms, and it seems to ignore both foods. Is there a relationship between the not-eating and the body-rubbing? any feeding tricks you may know of?
Thanks!
