We have 2 apisto cacatouides (cockatoo cichlids). The male (big meany) attacks anything in it's path, especially the female. The cory cats, not being the fastest of group, get the worst of it.. and now 2 of them are dead :(
One of the remaining 2 is missing almost all its tail and top fins.. I don't know what to do.. all the other fish get nagged but they are fine, so ..maybe no cory cats? or should I get more apistos?
