Hey Noiey,
Sounds like the yellow one is trying to show dominance over the black one. Could you take the yellow one out for a few days then try reintroducing it back to the tank?
Just a thought to see if introducing the yellow one as a "new" fish might help reduce the aggression.
For that size tank I would go with a combination of some or all of below with a Dwarf Gourami as a centrepiece.
Ember Tetras
Cherry Barbs
Panda Cory
From what I have read apistogramma cacatuoides might outgrow your tank.
Hey mogens,
I think you will end up with 2 very happy well fed loaches! I haven't heard of a particular type of snail they won't eat.
Potentially a large apple/mystery snail might survive if the loaches can't fit it in their mouth.

Hi all,
I am looking at upgrading to a bigger tank. I am trying to get some suggestions on new tank mates for my current fish.

Hi all,
I currently have a tank which is having bad algae blooms / green water issues since I missed a cleaning a while ago.
I have heard that Daphia can help reduce / help the green water. I live in Australia and have been unable to find anywhere to get them at any descent price.
I have seen...
Hello all I come bearing questions (again).
I have a tank with 2 Goldfish. It has been established for about 2 years. About 3 months ago I was lazy and didn't clean it for approximately 1 month and ended up with an algae bloom / green water.
Did a complete clean out and while the fish were out...
Hi King Fisher, I have decided to put it down to bullying by most likely the beta. It makes the most logical sense.
Looking at the damage to the Danio I think either the other Danio or the Beta were bullying him. (Still uncertain about cause of death of the other Danio as he was "buried" before...
Actually just had a closer look at the Danio which is still alive. His tail fin is damaged and his body appears slightly bent. I know that the deceased Dano used to chase it around before I added the fighting fish. I never saw any aggression from any of them but thought that the chasing was...
Hi King Fisher, thanks for your input. the tank had been setup for about a month before I added the beta. I am thinking something to do with water but as they seemed content and happy 1 day then dead the next made me think it could be something caused by the beta E.g. it has brought in...
Forgot to include:
Food - flake fish food.
Tank setup about 1 month
Small clip on filter
Unfortunately don't have a kit to test my water parameters at the moment.
Because the Danios have been happy and the fighting fish is still happy I don't believe it's water quality.
I have just never had...
Hi all I am hoping someone might be able to shed some light on what might have happened to my Danios.
Back Story
I had 2 Danios which were in with 2 Goldfish. The tank they were in had an algae bloom / green water.
When I changed the water / got this corrected I put the 2 Danios in another tank...
@coralbandit - ah �� thought similar to this. I have had gravel before but found it an absolute pain to clean and never found the gravel vac sufficient.
Hoping to setup a planted tank once my goldfish pass on or if I can find another nice (aka cheap) tank...
Would be putting in some caves and...
Hi,
I am looking at possibly getting some Kuhli Loaches and wanted to get some input about having them in a tank with no substrate? I would be putting in some decorations for them to hide in.
Also what size tank would be recommended for 5 of them.
Lastly slightly off topic has anyone made...
