I have a black molly that’s chasing some of my Cory cats. I have 40 gal hex tank that is planted and has driftwood in as well. I also have a terra-cotta pot that’s used as a cave. The fish in the tank is as follows:
2 angelfish
4 Serpa Tetras
2 panda Cory’s
3 Emerald Cory’s
1 said Molly

I’ve noticed it a little in the past but recently he’s chasing after then a lot. Is it something that I either have to get another Molly or get rid of him due to aggressive nature?
 
Buy three more Cory cats. Your mean Molly won't know which one to pick on.:)
 
Molly can be very mean sometimes. If its one Molly then re home him/her.
 
Hello wl...

Mollies are territorial, need a lot of tank room, are sensitive to even slight changes in their tank water and require a very specific mainly vegetarian diet. Any of these can cause a Molly to be aggressive.
