    I'm am just wondering what the deal is with my six line... I haven't really been watching my nano a whole lot lately, but I just realized that my wrasse is occasionally taking short swim breaks on the ground... After about a minute, he gets right up and continues doing whatever wrasses normally do. IS this just typical behavior, or should I begin to worry?

    Not to worry...wrasses do what wrasses want to do.

    My sixline demonstrates all kinds of different behavior during day. Food searching, damsel chasing, "playing" in water current coming from return, speed cruising around tank, taking "lazy" breaks now and then & disappearing into rock for while.

    Is what makes them such a cool fish to watch and have in tank.

    Has loads of character and is always doing something different if you watch closely....


    Enjoy.
