Evil kribensis

[Danielthorne198]

Absolutely fell in love with them, So we bought 2 kribensis and within 24 they were attacking all our fish... Even killing our golden gourami...
We've put them in a seperate quarantine tank for now.
Is there any suggestions on how to stop them being evil?

Is it a pair? I've never been able to keep a pair with other fish.

Either seperate the pair(may still be aggressive) or get a much bigger tank.

That's a funny story actually
We have a very well established 4 foot tank. We bought the kribensis, then they started attacking, so we started looking for a new quarantine tank and ended up buying a 2nd hand 6 foot tank. Slowly moved our 4 foot tank into our 6 foot tank and noticed the kribensis were still attacking, so we separated them. And still they were evil. so we ended up buying a 1 foot tank just for the kribensis
The 2 fish the cost $24, ended up costing $260 haha
They are really pretty though

Well, the good news is that you got a 6ft tank out of the deal.
