My Square Tail Tang is a dumb dumb.

So after 60 days of QT, it was time to get him in the DT. Put it in the acclimation box for a day, no fish paid it any attention so after lights out he went in. Day 1, he found a couple nooks and crannies he liked and pretty much stayed in there. However one of those spots happen to be claimed by my Flame Angel. Day 2, I noticed some signs of aggression on the tang. A little bit of a fin was nipped and probably a few bumps and bruises. I wasn’t overly surprised as the Angel can be a jerk at times, especially with its fav spot. So I put two mirrors on each end of the tank to help things out. No more than 5 minutes after the mirrors went up, the Tang started picking fights with himself in said mirror. The Angel completely ignores the mirror, but the tang wants nothing more than to kick his own butt. This has gone on for hours. It’s actually pretty funny, but I think the rest of the fish in the tank think he rides the short bus to school and maybe no more aggression… who wants to pick a fight with a certified lunatic….. time will tell.

Anyhow, thought it was pretty ironic and funny.

I tried a mirror for aggression once and my purple tang was scared and hid. He kept peeking out from behind a rock and wouldn't come out until I took the mirror down.
