Horabagrus Brachysoma observation

Post by Heck »

No idea if anyone else will find this interesting. I also added it to the notes under "my cats," but now I'm wondering if this is a common/known behavior or someone weird.

I have a lot of PVC hides, of which several are T shaped. Some are planted in the gravel so the stem elevates the horizontal portion, 1-2 (changes when I rearrange) are suspended mid-tank.

Both of my brachysoma prefer to be in the vertical stem of those Ts, nose up. I never see how they get into that position in the hides with the stem of the T planted in gravel - do they back in? Surely they're too big to turn around? But it's definitely how they prefer to hang out.

Anyone else's brachysoma prefer to rest vertically?
