He might or might not harrass your C.S. its all luck,, usualy the C.S. will just get out of the way. A C.S. will not cure your Ick problem, you need to find out why you are getting parasites and fix that, people have a false sense thinking that a C.S. will fix their parasite problem.

My C.S. spends 90% of his time hanging out at the base of my L.T.A. Im wondering if anybody knows if this is instinct? and they hang out there in the wild to try to shelter themselves from predatory fish? OR maybe hes waiting for my L.T.A. to exspell some waste to eat or what? Kind Regards
