Clown Loach

[Boromir]

I decided to get 6 clown loaches a couple of weeks ago to add to my 4 bigger clown loaches, although the new lot are not mixing in with the oldens yet everything seems fine until I noticed one of the smaller ones being aggressive to just the other small Clowns. Is this one looking to be the dominant in this group of 6? the aggressive one seems to be a darker orange and blacker then the others
 
And will they decide to group up with my other 4 soon? As the four older clowns are always hiding while the new ones are always out and about.
 
Regards.

They just need to establish a pecking order. Then they'll stop and will "live happily ever after"

Well looks like peace has broke out, the small ones are happily swimming together feeding and exploring through the tank. Now I just need toem to join up with my older ones to encourage them to come out of the hiding places.

Glad to hear it
