Is the tank still doing better?
Is the tank still doing better?
I am already having a problem keeping my trates down as it is. i dont want to get it over stocked to much and not be able to get them down and kill all the fish because of it. I am going to try and stay in the 18-20 range.I have 26 in my 55, but it's a lot of work to keep 'trates down. I use a 55g filter, and a 70g filter and a 21w UV sterilizer with 2 sponge filters in the corner. And I still do water changes 2-3 times a week. However, because I am so heavily stocked, everyone gets along. (I also have an elaborate network if caves and hiding places) which helps a lot.
When I didn't have a lot of hiding places fish would always be trying to find one, and fighting. After I added 15 caves and a few other ornaments EVERYONE is out all the time. I found its more about giving them security, knowing they can hide if they need to makes them feel safer to come out and mix it up.
I just took a video... In the video you can see that the OB I show in the beginning is the main guy i think. he was the first OB I had. The second fish I believe i go closer into, is the new lab female that isnt the happiest yet. the third fish is the other OB that just hangs around in the top corner and doesnt swim around the tank. After that, I tried to follow the yellow lab that I believe has become the dominant one.Is the tank still doing better?
Yeah i am going to put lots in. I try to get small spots but its hard when tho slate pieces are big so there is big spots. When should i let the other guy out?It may help a little to put all the rocks back in the tank and leave them. When you take them out ( i now you had to to catch the lab) it makes them have to find new spots to hide. So they will fight a little more over those spots. Also when you go to get it back together try to make smaller hiding spots so they feel safer. They can fit into some of the smallest of holes and they love them and pretty much need them

How long has it been since he was last in?
this is the tank set up. Should I let them get use to it for 1-2 days then try and let him out again? he doesnt look as dark colors. The back is now more of a greyHow long has it been since he was last in?
Okay, I will do that then. What stock should I do? Like sit there and watch and add to the group I feel is getting picked on the most? or what do you suggest?Yea that's what would do

Try adding him back if he goes on a rampage again your going to need to take him out and get rid of him. You can try adding more but your water quality is saying no more. So your going to need to do maintenance more often if you do. There is always going to be aggression as long as it's not non stop chasing, circling and fin nipping then you shouldn't need to worry about it so much.
