I have one male and five female platties in my tank.
The male charges and chases off one of the females whenever they get close. He only does it to the one female and swims with the others no problems.
Is this some sort of mating thing or does he hate this one female?
Also one of the females (not the one being chased) spends a lot of time hiding or sitting by herself, not swimming around much. She does come out every now and then and swims around with the others, but then goes back. She gets into things at feeding time so she has an appetite. What could be wrong?
