I had two males and two females in my 75 gallon tank One male paired up with the female and then all of a sudden my other male was gone for about a week. The other day I look in the tank and he is in there but had lost most of his color and looked really stressed. I thought he was dead for sure.
My pair killed off the other female for sure, I caught them both taking turns pecking at her up against the glass at the top of the tank, she was on her side. I tried to rescue her but she died hours later in a quarantine tank.
Now that my other male is back, the pair keep chasing him and the male chases him so much.
There are a lot of places to hide in my tank and I have a lot of plants. I don't know what to do. I thought adding a female would help but she ended up getting killed and now my male isn't looking too good.
I don't have anywhere to put him so he has to stay in my 75 gallon for now.
Have any of you experienced something like this before?
The two males use to get along fine and I bought them from the fish store together. Now that they have paired up they are overly aggressive towards him and my paired male will not stop chasing him everywhere he swims.
Should I try to catch him and return him? (This would probably take an entire day)
Or should I try to add another couple females to my tank?
