    I agree, understand and commiserate. I was just pointing out that the fish don't see it like we do. They only see competition for resources.

    Most of us don't, the melanurus might not been your answer until it acclimates. It may also go after the flasher.

    That are all competing for the same food.

    and as far as food goes im deffiently upping my feedins once the new wrasse gets in as the majority of my fish will be major pigs and only two passive eaters which are my firefish and my flasher

    Good luck and congrats on your new charge. Upping the feeding won't change the aggression. Most of your fish go after pods and plankton in the sea.

    I dunno. My fish are super mean to each other when they're hungry. I notice a big difference between when they are hungry and not.
