Please don't kill it, that is not appropriate or ethical. Either set up a new tank for him - I don't know what you put him in to separate him, but perhaps you can use that - or put an ad on CL/find a friend who is willing to take him. I'm not sure how long you have had it or what size tank or other fish you have.


My Molly was especially aggressive at first, especially around feeding time. Eventually, the aquarium figured out how to live peacefully.

Even if the store itself won't take it, sometimes the employees with experience will.

Also, are you sure it is a male? It is possible it is a female that is pregnant.
