Friday Night Fish Fights ???

[o2manyfish]

Hey Folks,

I was wondering if anyone else noticed aggression in their aquariums this afternoon and this evening.

My FO tank, and my reef tank both have alot of fish just going after each other left and right.


In my reef My Mandarin is actually chasing and nipping at a 6 line...

Is it just my house, or anyone else noticing some angry fish ?

i thought i was going crazy,same thing in my tank for the past week or so,i have a green coris that attacks the glass everytime someone goes by,i wonder if its the end of the world & somehow the fish already knows

Just you Dave. Things in CasaMoon are just peachy...

No problems here either Dave. I found that the best way to limit aggression is to put so many fish in the tank that they have a hard time turning around without running into each other...

hahaha i like that, I am going to have to go with that method .

Well things have subsided in both my tanks.

Have no idea why all the fish were so pissy on Friday. Maybe they were excited about everyone coming to visit for the frag swap....

Whatevah, calmness returns

Dave - Just could have been that time of the month.

Also - on the LA III reflectors, I have found that I like the bottom of the reflector about 7" above the water surface a little off center favoring the back given my rock structure and the light spread. This puts the bulbs a little under 10" from the water surface.

They were probably hung over from the party at my house Thursday.

Nevermind the 6-line went home with the Mandarin's date :p

Where's the tides at?
Any oddness to the Moon's orbit? [I know certain times of year it's closer/farther ... and tides vary the same].
I figure corals know to spawn certain times in the wild [like a week after the first full moon in Sept ...], maybe fish are affected too?
