Fish Bullying!!!!

[eric90gal]

Yes its not just in middle school. I added 2 royal blue finned wrasses today from Jays. Nice and healthy and eating but my other fish are not cooperating. I dont need any more new fish suicides. Any advice.

There is one theory if you remove the existing fish for a couple of days and reintroduce them the issue my subside.

The other is to introduce the fish in the dark.

Let us see what others have to say first.

+1 to flame angel. Another idea is to re arrange your rock work, and it resets the territory a bit so fish aint so possessive of "my spot"
Also, feed more so they dont fear starvation from competition. food is a nice distraction.

+1 on taking out the bully and re introducing him in a couple of days. This has worked for me a number of times in the past.

I wouldnt worry unless they start posting it on FB. Like other have said take the bully out if you can and throw him in the sump. Also rearranging rock work can also help.
