tetras

[reddeerhobbiest]

i recently changed my 55 gallon over to a tetra tank, the problem is that ive noticed one of the bleeding harts has been picking on one of the black skirts. today ive noticed that the black skirt is missing some of his tail. what can i do to deter this from happening? it has live plants although its not heavily planted. would it help to have more plants?

Plants provide more hidding spaces for fish and generally reduce agressive behaviour, because it allows more passive fish to get out of the way of more agressive fish. This may not nesicarily be your problem, but adding some more plants would not hurt.
