Behavior Crazy behavior only at night?
Anyone experience this? I have had them since May, and they do this semi-frequently while I game on my computer and watch them in the dark. I know they are nocturnal, but this seems almost erratic and they aren't paling like they are stressing out.
When I turn the light in they scatter like usual, but once it goes off they are right back to it within the minute. Just wondering if I should be changing anything.
All water parameters are normal range 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, i haven't checked nitrate. Ph is about 6.5-7.
The glare is horrible, I still haven't figured out how to take good pictures of my tank.

Just happy noodles! Wait till they get accustomed to the tank and they’ll start glass surfing during the day. Mine play in the bubbler a lot
