bad behavior, removal?

[Nicksplosion]

i have a JD im my tank right now and last night i added FM cichlids, he wont leave them alone! or let them eat.
i am setting up a a bigger tank probably this weekend, will this stop if they are in a bigger tank?
i really love the FM's and don't wanna get rid of them.

Just add the FM's first and give them 30mins to -1hr to settle in then add the rest if that is possible, and that should solve the problem...

thanks, il do that.
ill probly wait like half a day to add the JD to be safe.

 

[Nicksplosion]

any other advice?

hahahaha are you re-kidding me that was awesome
but yeah like the other guy said because the reason the JD is like that is most likley becasue he is being territorila and he knows that that is his tank so if you put the other ones in first he will be a little less aggresive and they should be okay. Thats how it works with my oscar.
