M. thoracatum digging behaviour

Post by Cory_lover »

Hey guys, after doing a 20% water change, noticed my male hoplo was doing something that it's never done before - digging. just wondering if this is something 2 worry about...? It's about 8cm in length now.

Oh sorry, forgot 2 mention that after it digs, it just stays burrowed, with the rear end of it above the substrate. Doesn't it get suffocated or something..?
