BTA question

Foxedinco · Apr 12, 2022

Introduced a green BTA to my tank within the last week and he has been cruising around the tank looking for a home. My 2 clowns have been following the BTA and nesting constantly whenever he stopped. 2 days ago he found a home at the bottom of a rock in a hole in the rock. He has been looking great the past 2 days there and all of a sudden he sucked all the way into the hole. 2 questions should I be worried and is it possible he just wants a break from the clowns? Thanks in advance for any advice.

Not so much cruising but avoiding either lighting too bright or likely flow that is a little high
Moderate light and water flow is all they ask for plus feed mysis shrimp 2-3x per week

Let it do its thing and find a happy place. things will fall into place after the initial where do i want to be walking around is done. No need to be worried let it get comfy in its new home.
