I just purchased 2 2" orfes for my outdoor pond and about one hour after I put them in, I found them lying on the ground. I have now put them in a 1 gallon tank inside, one of them seems to be ok but the other doesn't look too well, lying on the bottom. I have added stress coat and stress zyme.

I was wondering how they landed up being on the ground. Do orfes jump? Or was it one of the neighborhood cats?

I have also read that they must be kept ina shoal and am planning on buying 4 more soon if I work out the pond (about 25 gallons) is ok for these two.
