Hi guys,
I have a scenario where I had a davinci and a lightning maroon, both small juveniles. The davinci died, and was replaced by another.
It was a bit patchy at first, but they were getting along for the better part of the past week. The new davinci is slightly larger. The lightning hosts the bta, I think the davinci wants in.
Yesterday they were scuffling a bit, and today I thought all was well until a half hour ago I checked the tank and the lightning is hiding out back, and the davinci hits him hard if he leaves the back.
Problem (aside from the obvious) is the orchid dottyback doesnt appreciate him there either. His fins are getting tattered. I placed a scubber wand at an angle next to his rock, which is keeping the davinci at bay for now.
Should I remove one of the 2 and isolate them, and if so which one, the aggressor or the victim?
