Is p. Teugelsi typically aggressive towards other bichirs? I did some reading prior to and most seemed they weren't and I do realize that they are all different, however this guy chases the ornate, delhezi and 2 Senegal's in there with him. Just curious is all...here is a pick and sorry about the algae:

If the teug is significantly bigger than the rest it might pick on them. Is it like competition for food picking on or just a lot of the time.
Can always add more hiding spots, like tubes

Might be....hopefully he chills down. He is far outgrowing the other 4 bichirs.
