Hi All,
Just for background, I have a 75g With a tomini who previously was the boss of the tank, a melanarus wrasse, two small clowns, and a small royal gramma. I was at the lfs and was about to just purchase a flame angel, when my girlfriend wanted me to get a coral beauty as well. I knew that putting two dwarf angels in one tank is usually not successful, however, the Girlfriend was persistent and the owner of the LFS said as long as they’re added together there should be no problems. So, I ended up getting both the flame and coral beauty. They drip acclimated and went into my tank last night. I woke up today and from the first second I could tell the flame was swimming around the tank like he was the boss. Him and my tomini have been doing what I imagine to be a Display of dominance.. going parallel to each other and shaking their tails at each other. The flame is also bullying the heck out of the coral beauty who is only swimming in the corners of the tank. She looks fine and was eating today, but the flame is a huge a**hole.
I have a foot long acclimation box. Should I put the coral beauty in the box for a bit? Any advice would be appreciated. I would really like everyone to get along, but if it comes down to it I will have to take out someone.
