Aggresive dats?

[hghlndr85]

i have 2 silver dats (3") in a tank with a 9 inch silver arowana and they wont leave him alone at night i hear him spashing all the time, i see hes missing some scales now. also noticed a wound on my ornate bichir today, could they be the culprit?

IME silver dats are territorial and seem intent on chasing other fish away from their spot. have they set up camp in your tank somewhere? maybe you can get rid of these spots to alleviate it. anyways my 2 pennies. good luck

silver dat's seem to be like the most aggressive. ive had 1 with my pair of NTT and it tormented them for weeks until i sold him.

if it happened before you got the dats then it most likely isn't them but i think it is them
