I recently acquired 5 young (about 2.5 inches from base of tail to base of snout) Forcipiger flavissimus. They're in my 40 gallon QT together along with some other small fish. I was looking for any experience pairing this species specifically or even just butterflies in general: any behaviors I should watch out for, good/bad signs, etc.
It's only been a couple days so far but it seems like none of them really like each other: a decent amount of posturing and some quick chasing away here and there.
Am I just really unlucky? How long do they usually take to figure things out?
