Hi,
I was having an algae problem with my goldfish tank so I decided to go buy a snail or algae eating fish to control it. They didn't have any snails or anything else so I made a somewhat uninformed decision to buy 2 CAE's. I've recently read that they can be aggressive. I haven't had any problems yet, but I don't want my goldfish getting hurt or fins nipped or anything like that. Will he be okay? I'm going to move one CAE to another tank but I want to keep them if possible because I find them interesting.
The CAE's seem to be setting up territories within the tank as they each have places they like to spend most of their time. One CAE is about an inch and a half and the other is 2 inches
