Don't know if this should be here or the cichid discussion...
How do I know when my angel's behavior passes into the point of aggression? I have two...put them in the tank at the same time. The koi was always slightly larger but not drastically so (this was maybe 2-3 months ago). The koi has always been more aggressive at feeding and now is much bigger than the little black guy (randomly assigned sex ) (The smaller's about quarter sized, the other ~1.5 inches). Sometimes they're happily hanging out in the same general area, but other times I'll see the koi lunge at the black and chase him off. Obviously this has not led to any damage of the black (I'd know that's passed the line! ) But when do I need to worry that this isn't working and think about removing one? Thanks...
