I added a (fully grown) midas blenny to my tank last week. The current inhabitants are a yellow coris wrasse, dragonet, and a clownfish. The wrasse seemed to drop off the radar except for an hour or two for a few days and came out more yesterday and today. Yesterday the midas blenny would charge at the wrasse every time it swam in the water column and today it just leaves its perch spot and stares at the wrasse who immediately swims for cover.
My first thought was to put the blenny in a "time out box" for a few days to see if that curbs the aggression but am thinking it will be ineffective as the blenny is the newest fish and just immediately became a bully. Do I have any other options besides giving it back to my LFS?
