Black Kuhlies

Post by blossom » Thu Jun 28, 2007 10:27 pm

I have 4 black kuhlies that eat out of my hand they are in tank with dojos and all get along GREAT..because my dojos are so use to eating from hand could this have triggered the kuhlies to be more personable? They have no real threats and are quite content under my big imagination rock but do come out and snack with dojos? Anyone else ever experience this?
I feed kuhlies at night before i go to bed but they also eat in morning when i feed dojos.

Perhaps they see the Dojos as 'big brother' or something, and are willing to accept their lead.
38 tanks, 2 ponds over 4000 liters of water to keep clean and fresh.

Happy fish keeping!

I have 4 black Kuhlies as stated, 2 of them are always together doing their figure 8's on the glass together, the other 2 i rarely see, should i be worried, i havent senn 1 of them in 4 days, however, they all look alike so i am assuming. I hate to constantly disturb their hiding places as they are just starting to eat from my hand and trust me...how long do you guys wait before you go hunting for missing fish?

They are kept between 72-74 degrees...if it gets too hot i put on my window a/c to keep it down...otherwise i use 6 icepacks which usually brings it down 1-2 degrees if needed.
Right now its 72
