six line... hmmm
can be a fickle eater at times
will look and sometimes pick at various things in the tank.
may pick on shrimp from time to time , but not cleaners..( from what i have seen)
also can be very fast swimmers and might jump if he is spoked. loves pods!!!!
loves small crawlers of just about anytype.

six lines are cool fish. But will harass shy and timid fish.
