Yamato Clustering Together

[Ben555]

Hi all,

Need advice.

I am seeing all my Yamotos clustering on top of the driftwood, they usually swim around eating but it seems they are not doing that now.

Is there something wrong going for the Yamatos?

You probably has done WC and they needed time to adjust to the sudden change in water parameter. In the process, they will find their own "kakis" to cluster around or dart into a heavily mossed area or hide among the gap of a broken driftwood to sooth their stress. Once they are stabilised, they will start moving around again and during resting, you will find them sticking together (most of the time). Under stress, Yamoto will start fasting and they somehow won't die so easily without eating for couple of days. Have been observing their patterns for nearly a year now.

Thanks Bluebubbles,

You are right, they are now back to normal and fighting for food with the fish
