WTH is so interesting?

I am 100% postiive that he's eating. That's kinda why stress didn't even really occur to me. He will sometimes spit out the mussels but everything else he devours.

Before I got him he was quarantined with a hyposalinity treatment for over a week. I know this wouldn't kill all parasites but it should have eliminated some of the nastier ones.

Here's a few pics taken just a minute ago:

Yes he does look skinny to me, but I think every fish looks skinny until they are obese TBH.






Since moving the powerhead he's left the wall alone.

well, the fish on the first pic looks quite fat! It it is a pic of your fish, then no worry, he's fat as can be

This is what a skinny copperband looks like, the top of the head is pinched, the belly area is sunken:

Oh wow... that fish looks terrible.. Poor guy.

I'm going to keep an eye on his weird behavior but so far today he hasn't done it.
