African_Fever Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 Does anyone else have a bristlenose that just lays on it's back rather than hang on the underside of the cave etc? My largest female has a ledge that's about 2" above the sand, and often she'll just be laying on the sand on her back, rather than stuck to the underside of the ledge, as if she just got lazy and fell off (no, she's not dead, and is quite active at night and regularly comes out at feeding time).

dunl Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 That's just weird. How do you know when it actually kicks the bucket? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majestic_Aquariums Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 We have one of those too. I asked awhile ago, and got the impression ours is normal. But what a dogger! It's a wonder it's still living, I guess it must stay busy @ night. With as many hiding spots it has, will be hard to know when it is dead, before screwing up our tank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birger Posted March 24, 2005 Report Share Posted March 24, 2005 That's a good sign, definately no stress there, this is not uncommon with these so should be nothing to worry about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
