Blue Gudgeon Dartfish LAZY?

[xxnonamexx]

I just got my fish order and I notice the 2 Blue Gudgeon dartfish not very active I have 2 clowns, Naso Tang, Coral Beauty and 6 Chromis, everyone is doing great water levels excellent why are these guys so lazy lol. I thought they were supposed to be active swimmers? They stay on the bottom and hide alot I have had them for 24hrs.

Did you shut off your lights and let them acclimate to their new surroundings? You have to give them time to adjust....

They are also very shy citizens - give them some time and see what comes of it.

They are active swimmers, but also active floaters as well -

Good luck with them - I am sure they'll come around - even when they do, likely they'll spend alot of time hovering and when they move, they do so swiftly and accurately.
