fish aggression

[Qasimja]

so i just added 2 pyramid butterfly fish to my tank today and every once and a while my coral beauty will do this to them otherwise nothing else is going on kinda weird because the coral beauty isn't aggressive at all to any other fish will it subside with time and this is nothing to worry about?

she hasnt bitten or nipped them just kinda chases them for a second or two then backs off

 

[Qasimja]

anyone?

you can put a mirror on side of the tank. it should work.

i wouldn't worry too much if its not worse than that. there is always a hierarchy in tanks so they are just sorting out the new positions

yea the coral beauty isnt doing it all the time just every once and a while and it isnt really aggressive like when i tried to add another tomato clown a month or two ago my tomato tried to kill it had to take it out i will just keep an eye on it

you could also try to break up feedings to multiple times a day if possible. fat, full fish that aren't concerned with not getting enough food are going to fuss less with each other

I think it looks okay for now, the CB is just established but the butterfly does look to be flaring and not completely backing down.

the aggression has subsided they all swim together now
