I just added a new female swordtail and a new female platy to my 55gal tank. Already there were 1M & 1F swordtails and 1M & 1F platies. Almost immediately, my male swordtail began pecking at the sides of the new female swordtail, which he had never done to the original female. I understand swordtails can be moderately aggressive toward one another, but I didn't expect between sexes. Will this behavior continue? Will my new female be accepted?
