This is a Commando Discus. When lights on, prone position to avoid enemy detection. Lights off, cheong ah!
Weird, never seen such interesting behavior before. |

bro, discuss tend to have such behaviors esp. when u just switched the light. Give it time to adapt to the sudden brightness. This is a normal reaction when the place was in darkness suddenly there's such brightness... the fish is reacting to it.. my arros are worse, they anyhow jump...
No worries...bro.. |
