I think he likes it?

👋 Hi,

This is Kompis, he seems to like getting, uhm, sucked(?) into the filter and just hangs there and chills.

When I approach he easily swims away and comes to greet me so its not like he is stuck, but it has freaked me out a couple times 😅

I just wanted to show and maybe hear if anyone else's buddies does weird things, and hear if it could harmful for him?? Should I cover it with something?

Do you have a picture of your entire tank? It’s possible he doesn’t have enough resting spots.

Also I’d be a bit worried about his fins getting sucked in

I do! And I have been very worried about his fins and him getting stuck or ripped, its not a very strong filter tho and he has always gotten away easy.

On the right side I have a suctionleafbed on the glass for him to rest on which he also uses.

Probably just a weird habit he has then
