My whitetail bristletooth was bullying my Midas blenny. So I bought a fish trap and kept watch. The Midas is hiding so now the bristletooth is really aggressive. It is like without the blenny, he is amping up the bullying more. He is leaving my other tangs alone. But today he started going after (chasing, spanking) my other fish.
Dang fish trap turned out to be piece of junk. It won't shut quickly to catch fish. So I am using it as a social acclimation box for the fish he tried to terrorize today.
I am very upset because I don't see my favorite fish - my jawfish. The jawfish was perfectly fine last night. I hope he just is hiding.
1). I am trying not to stress, but would love any suggestions.
I will buy a better fish trap if you know one that works. Any suggestions at all are appreciated.
2) Also - how long will my other fish handle being inside the social acc box? I can feed him in the box etc. But I can't let it out. I'm afraid the bristletooth would kill it. It already hit its dorsal fin a bit.
