SRC Member ozy Posted December 8, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted December 8, 2004 Hi, I used to have 2 blue knuckle in my invert tanks, and everything is fine. I recently acquired 2 orange knuckle and 1 of my blue knuckle seems to be on steriods now. It keeps moving around the tank and sometimes, it will lock in an embrace with 1 of the orange knuckle. I am worried that the blue knuckle is attacking the orange knuckle, should I be concerned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member rockfish Posted December 8, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted December 8, 2004 i got a feeling the blue knukle is trying to snatch the shell from the orange.. try to put a few bigger shell in the tank .. maybe that will stop it ..

SRC Member tineng Posted December 8, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted December 8, 2004 i have 1 orange and 1 blue....they are about the same size, both seems to be doing fine for the past 6 months.... i have not experiences in any agression between the 2, but i think if you place some empty shells that are slightly larger around the tank it would help....its always easy to occupy a empty shell then to try to fight it out with one another...
