Ah! Grr! Black Neon Agressition!

[CBBP]

I came home today and found my SAE's beign chaced by a black Neon, he went after them for 10 minutesstraight and rested a bit and then went at it again. What is up with this? Could be the fact that where is only three of them and he is the biggiest? or the fact that they are not shoaling in the large tank because they can't find each other?

With black neons, you should really have twelve for them to feel comfortable and act normally. Six would be the bare minimum though.

well I can't just throw 6 of them in there all at once can I? That is jsut asking God for problems.

I have 4 in my 15 gallon tank really and waiting to enter the tank as soon as the levels are good.
