Chick-In-Of-TheSea Posted March 25, 2023 Author Share Posted March 25, 2023 (edited) Not sure if I mentioned this, but sometimes Snoopy picks up sand and spits it out. (The equivalent of raiding the cupboard for snacks) She doesn’t do it every day, but on occasion.

That's why I put a lot of sand to my new tank hoping them to enjoy the sand. I am excited to see if mine will interact with the sand. Try to catch a picture when she plays with it. I wanna seee 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is the cutest. 😄 As long as she is happy sifting the sand, I'm okay with not seeing it happening.💔🥲 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever I see them all fat and happy, it reminds me of a book about a small boy who thinks he’s a plane. « Conducted a midnight air raid on sweetie jar, served sentence in the sick wing » 😂😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nabokovfan87 Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 Mine did it all the time. Especially during feeding or early in the morning. A lot of them are similar to geos in being able to pick food out of the sand /fine substrates. Learned something new yesterday. Some fish do this to chew! I forget which specific fish was mentioned, but they have a gill rake. They pass the food over it and use that to chew it down smaller and smaller.

Chick-In-Of-TheSea Posted March 26, 2023 Author Share Posted March 26, 2023 I put in a boiled lettuce and Snoopy started tugging at it and swimming backwards! Of course when I got the camera out, she wouldn’t do it again 🙃 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chick-In-Of-TheSea Posted April 5, 2023 Author Share Posted April 5, 2023 Snoopy seems bored. I put a swim-through in there for her. @xXInkedPhoenixX do you ever get that feeling about Punk? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spooky usually doesn’t seem bored to me, probably because there are ghost shrimp he hunts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xXInkedPhoenixX Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Sometimes, but not often. Punk seems to be well occupied with the other fish in the tank, patrolling the snails, etc. Day before yesterday I saw Punk going more than halfway up the tank (20 tall) which was interesting as that's not typical - my guess though is that there may have been fry in the tank. I do wish I had a tank with a longer base but it seems to me 95% of the time Punk is content. Oh and Punk also likes to rearrange things, the chola, the subwassertang and some of the root plants. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahah, too funny. Snoopy has appointed herself as snail supervisor as well. And inspector of all snail food. She occasionally helps with quality checking the snail menu to ensure it is adequate. Snoopy has been doing a little bit of glass surfing and I wonder how I can improve the habitat. Unless this is her way of begging for food between meals (I wouldn’t put it past her). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
