How is this tank different from the ones at home? Temp.? Plants? Hiding
spots?
Some of my fish-sticklebacks & darters stop attacking all the new
reflections they see of themselves over time but they still act freaky every
once in a awhile. I've seen lots of aggression but little injury. Maybe if
there's one aggressor he could be removed.
Otherwise- GOOD LUCK!
Let us know how it turns out!
