I have two leopards in my 75g, an ornate and a black. Both are about three inches and have been in the tank for about 6 months. The black leopard cruises around and picks at rocks, very occasionally chasing its reflection on the glass. The ornate, however, spends about 75% of its time chasing its reflections up and down and across the glass. Really neurotic appearing in an otherwise very chill tank. Anyone else have this issue with leopards? About ready to trade him in as it makes the tank less enjoyable to watch.
 
My Blue Star goes all over but it's not the pacing that you described. Could just be that the Ornate might have been old enough when it was caught in the wild to be freaked out by the relatively cramped space it lives in now.
