One of my angels is bullying the other one who is starting to hide a bit what should i do

1 Get 2 more angels which i was planning on doing anyway when i get my big tank. Too even out the agression of the one angel between the other 3

2 get rid of the aggressive angel. Which i really dont want to do as ive become attached to it.

3 Just let them fight (In every poll like question there has to be a stupid answer.)

4 Create more hiding places in the tank with another piece of driftwood and more plants

Oh yeah ive got to tell you the stock dont I

42gal
12 rasboras (very small)
1 butterfly fish (2inches)
1 BGK (almost 3inch hes growing like mad)
2 swordtails (3inch long finned green sword and a 2inch normal green sword)
1 rainbow shark (5.5inches)
2 angels (2.5inches
8 cories

Thanks ALex

You could try making more hiding places, but if that doesn't work, get rid of the aggressive angel.

You can have more hiding places & arrainge the tank ornaments. If the aggression continues, you can take tha aggressive Angel out & put it back after a week.

You can try seperating them for a period of time and rearranging the tank but sometimes it just wont work and you'll need to rehouse either the bully or the victim.

Good luck though, hopefully you wont need to do that.


Before you criticize someone walk a mile in their shoes. That way you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
