Hello im new here dor startets english is not my mother tongue,
I have a around 60 gallon reef aquarium around 3,5 feet.
Now to my wrasse its acting strange, it is mostly glassurfing and very rarely is swimming at the water surface.
It's breathing normal, it feeds normal I always feed masstick to enhance the natural picking behavior.
Now strange thing is he does it most of the time tho sometimes he acts totally normal and hunts around the tank, he always "throws" sand around and then feeds on whatever he sees in there.
My melanurus wrasse is not as worst as he is but he does glassurf too tho only on the glass side which is covered in algae. When they're both feeding its obvious that the yellow wrasse is the dominant one he doesn't hurt him only chases him for a second.
They both get bog bellys after feeding and both sleep in the sand.
So I wonder what's the problem here.
Some say they chase there reflection cause they turn male?
Could it be stress cause they feel cramped? (They don't even swim that much they just search all the rocks and caves while hunting).
I'm kinda worried but it can't be parasites I guess cause I have them for over 6 months now.
