Hey everyone. Longtime lurker, first time poster here.
I just received a filamented flasher wrasse as well as a mccosker. They are both together in a 10 gallon QT right now. My problem is the filamented is quite a bit bigger than the mccosker and is "picking" on him. The mccosker stays tucked away at the bottom of the tank, or in pvc, while the filamented swims all over the place. Every time the mccosker tries to come out the filamented sort of charges him, but doesn't seem to try and hurt him. Is this just a dominance thing and they'll sort it out? Or should I get another 10 gallon and separate them? Sorry for the long winded post! Thanks!
