Chasing and nipping don't always cause torn fins, but the stress it produces will cause the fading colorsWill definitely look into doing that once my CO2 stabilizes a bit. I had 6 and one died while moving 2 months ago. He was already kind of weak and frequently had swim bladder and health issues on and off. Since I added the 2 there was some fin nipping among them for a few days, then it stopped when they got settled in. The Bolivians don’t have torn fins though, are there any other signs of aggression from the tetras I should look for?
Could just have been that CO2 overdose, though....as you say, keep an eye on things
