Hi there!

I introduced a male and female White Cloud Minnow pair to my established tank. One of my Neon Dwarf Rainbows is obsessed with chasing, nipping, and cornering the male White Cloud Minnow to the point where I’m worried he’s going to perish. The female remains completely ignored by the other fish in the tank. Should I excommunicate this problematic rainbow?

Parameters are all within range.
30 gal, 30” long.

Stock:
5 Skirt Tetras
1 Danio
6 Dwarf Rainbows
6 Neon/Cardinal Tetras
2 White Cloud Minnows
1 Dwarf Cory

Help! I want to keep the peace but it’s proving difficult. Anyone experience Neon Dwarf Rainbows being territorial or aggressive?
