Lavender Tang (Freckles)

He's a jerk to any fish close in size.

Domino damsel for sure was my bully, had him in 120 with lots of LR and coral he killed 3 copper bands a lawn mower Blenny & a clown I couldn't catch him he was very smart he would hide when I got the net , I tried everything traps, blocking him three people with nets after 6 months of trying I just made a spear gun with a ink pen and a 12" needle and one shot to the heart and it was over very fast. I felt bad I had him few years but it was time for him to go I needed other fish to take care of other issues. RIP Blacky.
 
Pickles my green wolf eel. Always tried to steal everyone else's food. He doesn't care about the lion fish spines at all.

She and my Molly ought to get together and go drive-by ketchupping.
 
Its not the boss of the tank, but mine is my tri color angel. It harasses anything smaller than itself all the time.
 
It used to be my Coral Banded Shrimp until I caught and removed him.

I would say that the tank bully is now my clown, although he is not too bad and does not really bother the others.

Right now my female clown, but the yellow watchman doesn't take any crap off her. Now her significant other is a different story. Poor guy.
 
My Purple Tang gets along with everyone, including a yellow, sailfin, tomini, and blue tang. Even newbies are accepted. But he always shows them who's the boss up front. I recently got a new Copperband two weeks ago. For two days he was chased everywhere and now they're the best of buds.
